Diana Gregory Outreach Services

The mission of Diana Gregory Outreach Services is to enrich lives through healthy eating. We do this by providing access to fresh produce to low-income seniors, veterans and vulnerable individuals who are experiencing health disparities. Services focus on nutrition and fitness through on-site farmers' markets, and educational programs.

If you had to decide between food and medicine, which would you choose? Each night, nearly 15% of Arizona's seniors face that very question. At Gregory's Fresh Market (GFM), a division of Diana Gregory Outreach Services Foundation, we're committed to ending hunger and malnutrition among those who are often forgotten or ignored. Our mission is to enrich the lives of Arizona seniors and veterans. This is achieved through a holistic approach, including education to increase senior understanding and acceptance of making healthy food choices, fitness, on-site farmers markets, community organizing, and advocacy.

Gregory's Fresh Market is Arizona's mobile farmers market, which provides mature Americans, living in senior residential communities, with access to fresh produce. Founded in 2010, this 501(c)(3) organization serves more than 30,000 seniors and veterans annually in over 70 affordable and independent living facilities throughout the Greater Phoenix area. Many locations are in "food desert" areas. These are areas, where seniors have a need, but not always the resources, to access fresh fruits and vegetables. GFM provides independence for seniors, who lack mobility, and choices for food selection.

Testimonials

Gregory’s Fresh Market has profoundly impacted the residents of Senior Living at Henson Village by providing regular deliveries of fresh produce. Many seniors, facing mobility challenges and limited means, now have access to nutritious options like bell peppers, bananas, oranges, and cucumbers. This initiative not only enhances their diets but also fosters a sense of community, as residents come together to prepare healthy meals and support peers unable to cook. The expansion from 60 to 90 monthly bags in 2025 underscores the program’s growing success and the residents’ enthusiasm. Gregory’s Fresh Market’s dedication brings joy and tangible health benefits to our senior community. – Claudia Espinoza Housing Service Coordinator

The bag of fresh fruits and vegetables is the difference between having a meal and starving.

“We had 65 residents sign up for fresh produce, and every bag was gone the next morning! Gregory’s Fresh Market helps our residents stay resilient and connected. We are so thankful for their generosity!” – Angela Banks., Service Coordinator
