Moveable Feast: Fresh Produce and the NYC Green Cart Program documents an innovative NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene program that provides underserved communities with access to fresh fruits and vegetables via hundreds of independently owned, mobile produce stands known as Green Carts.

The exhibition features new photographs by LaToya Ruby Frazier, Thomas Holton, Gabriele Stabile, Will Steacy, and Shen Wei, who were commissioned by the Aperture Foundation to chronicle the initiative over the course of a year.

The resulting photographs, in styles ranging from portraiture to landscape to street photography, capture not only the carts themselves, but also the stories of the vendors, customers, and their communities.
Moveable Feast invites consideration about the geography of food options and its relationship to a community’s health.

LTI-Lightside worked with Aperture Foundation to produce prints for  Gabriel Stabile, LaToya Ruby Frazier and Shen Wei for this exhibition.
