Denzel T. Veale Graduate Student Experience and Success Story

Denzel T. Veale was a part of the Graduate Public Health Program 2018-2020. His research was named "Farmers Market Promotion & Programs to Rural and Food Desert Communities". While in the program he led a series of farmers market events to get the university students and community more active at the market. During this pandemic, he has created a way to promote access to fresh fruits and vegetables through a mobile phone app and curbside pickup system.听The "Access: Farm to Table" App is a resource and tool used to promote availability and accessibility to fresh fruits, vegetables, and products from local farmers and food distributors to communities with limited food access and public health promotion.

All our local produce is harvested at peak ripeness and travels only a short distance between the farm to your table so the produce you receive is nutrient-dense and incomparably delicious. By shopping on the Access application, you are not only supporting local farmers, you are also helping them plan their crops, leading to less waste and more of the fruits and veggies you love most.听
