## Resource

Birmingham’s District Six just got a game-changer with the grand opening of the Carver Jones Market — a fresh, locally-sourced food hub tackling the city’s stubborn food desert crisis head-on. With 70% of residents in the area lacking easy access to healthy groceries, this market isn’t just about produce; it’s about jobs, community investment, and empowering local farmers. Councilor Crystal N. Smitherman praised the initiative as a direct response to neighborhood needs, ensuring dollars stay local and families get real solutions. This is more than a grocery store — it’s a catalyst for health and economic growth right where it’s needed most.
