Community Supported Grocery

Community Supported Grocery is a grocery delivery service in Charleston, SC, providing weekly curated deliveries of local produce and pantry staples directly from farmers to residents. The service operates through a subscription model, offering customizable hauls that include seasonal vegetables, dairy, baked goods, butcher cuts, grains, and other local products, with options tailored to dietary restrictions and affordability. It serves individuals and families across the Charleston area, with a focus on making local food accessible to low-income and food-insecure communities through a sliding scale pricing system and SNAP/EBT compatibility. The business has been active since 2018 and emphasizes equitable access, sustainability, and community support in its operations.

The business is part of a broader social enterprise that includes Lowcountry Street Grocery, a mobile market rooted in the same mission of food equity.

It functions as a bridge between local farmers and consumers, reducing market stressors for producers while expanding access to fresh, healthy food for underserved populations.
