Doctors prescribe fresh produce instead of pills to fight diabetes.
(Columbus Dispatch: Logan County Medical Practice’s preferred prescription is produce, not pills)
HEART is part of Mid-Ohio Farmacy, welcoming neighbors in Franklin County with a doctor’s prescription to shop for fresh produce once a week.

HEART serves hungry, food insecure neighbors who live below 200% of the poverty line.
