Fresh Start Pantry by Goodman
Empowering Healthy Choices
The Fresh Start Pantry is a referral-based initiative developed in collaboration with healthcare providers designed to support patients on their journey towards increased food and nutrition security. The pantry bridges the critical gap between nutrition and health, addressing food and nutrition insecurity as a determinant of overall wellness.
Participants can select food items that best meet their household needs, taking into account cultural preferences, dietary restrictions, and personal tastes. This client-choice model not only empowers individuals through greater autonomy but also helps reduce food waste.
Clients are referred to the pantry by their healthcare providers, who assist with the initial enrollment process. Once registered, clients are scheduled for recurring monthly appointments at the food bank, where they can continue accessing nutritious food tailored to their needs.
The Fresh Start Pantry aims to give shoppers:
-
Choice in their household food
-
Access to a variety of fresh foods
-
Autonomy through choice

Silvia, Soboba Nutrition Market Recipient
"I would tell the people not to feel bad about receiving food. Food is essential. It’s important. It’s a priority to eat. It’s a lot of help to us that are struggling financially right now. Because I do not have unemployment, disability, or anything. So, the food I get here, I try to make it last a week or at least five days, whatever it takes."
Peter, Soboba Nutrition Market Recipient
"I grew up on a reservation in Arizona. I am Navajo, and I am a retired veteran. The Soboba Market is important because of financial setbacks right now. Last year, my air conditioner went out, so I had to pay around 40,000 dollars in financial struggle. So that really hit me financially, so this market is essential because I don’t have to worry about not having enough food in my house to feed my family."
