Everyone deserves access to healthy food

Oak Cliff, a large and diverse area in the southern part of Dallas, is home to many low-income Black and Brown residents who lack access to healthy food sources, including fresh produce and nutritious meals.

Spanning over 54% of Dallas’s land mass and housing more than 200,000 residents, Oak Cliff is considered a food desert.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, this designation refers to “low-access communities” where at least 33% of the population lives more than one mile from a supermarket.
