One way health advocates are working to make more nutritious food available in neighborhoods without easy access to supermarkets is by trying to get more fruits and vegetables into corner stores. A new website, Market Makeovers, has launched to guide people who might like to organize such a project.
Market Makeovers features the work of some high school students in South Los Angeles who have been working on three stores in their neighborhood as case studies.
