Abstract
Disparities in access to fresh, healthful food are well documented. Consumers in higher-income communities routinely have more options than their lower-income counterparts. Closing that gap should be a priority for both health reasons and economic development. The Elm City Market, in New Haven, represents a new model, using the cooperative form, to address food disparities.
