Earth Mart is to create value and job opportunities by popularize urban agriculture, kitchen gardens. The impact is to connect consumers with producers directly, improve access to local food. The circular process is to consolidate distribution, facilitate access, maximize consumption, and minimize spoilage and waste. In doing so, enable the community participation by removing the obstacles of up-front investments and ensure successful harvest. The resulting food access is especially beneficial for the underserved and vulnerable communities for their health, in combating obesity, diabetes, and other diet related diseases. In the long term, create a consistent supply of healthy fresh food and income source within the circular process. The circular supply chain will also impact local air, soil and water quality. Recycling food waste from its source and process locally diverts the food waste from landfills that generates greenhouse gas emissions. The composting process is odorless and generates zero secondary pollution.
