The interruption of SNAP benefits has created immediate, critical challenges for people in South Jersey and beyond. Not-for-profit Virtua Health, South Jersey’s largest health system, has responded by temporarily modifying and expanding its Eat Well food access programs for everyone.

Virtua has deployed its new Mobile Food Farmacy – a 40-foot, custom-designed vehicle – as a second Mobile Grocery Store during this period of greater need. The Mobile Food Farmacy is offering high-quality groceries at deeply discounted prices for all customers at the pop-up events below.

Food will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last. Look for the large blue van with the words “Eat Well” and “Virtua Health.”

At the same time, the Eat Well Mobile Grocery Store and Mobile Farmers Market will continue standard daily operations to serve community members who rely on these programs. (Schedules are available online at the links provided above.)  

The Eat Well programs are “fueled” by Virtua’s generous philanthropic donors. In 2023, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion recognized Virtua Health as a Healthy People 2030 Champion for Eat Well and Virtua’s other mobile community health programs.
