A grassroots non-profit organization dedicated to increasing food access in the San Francisco East Bay
关于我们
Saba Grocers is a grassroots initiative of corner store owners in Oakland founded in 2019. Saba’s mission is to shift liquor stores to community stores by increasing produce inventory and healthy products on the shelf of small businesses. We work with each corner store owner on a transition plan to increase healthy produce in a safe and responsible way considering market growth strategies, sustainable supply channels and community engagement tools to anchor each market in the surrounding neighborhood. Majority of our participating stores are located in East and West Oakland.

I am so proud of the work we are doing in extending SNAP Match programs to corner stores in Oakland. Our residents get to shop for 150 different produce and herb varieties on a daily basis, at 80% off, at thier convenience at thier corner store! Shout out to our awesome Saba team Medyna Harfouche Rae Peres Laura Lackey for reaching a whooping 94% redemption rate each year ????
?? Celebrating two impactful years of Fresh5x! Since November 2022, we’ve provided $475,900 worth of fresh fruits and vegetables directly to over 700 SNAP recipient Oakland families. This milestone is a testament to the power of community-driven food access initiatives, and we're just getting started. Thank you to everyone who’s helped make Fresh5x possible—together, we’re building a healthier Oakland, one family at a time. ???? #FoodAccess #OaklandCommunity #SabaGrocersInitiative #Fresh5x

This week's animal is: calico cats! The account admin can (lovingly) confirm that, having a tabby/calico mix, their famous attitude does seem to run in the family ?? #sabagrocers #poundsoffood #oakland #oaklandca #calico #calicocat #animaloftheweek

The animal of this week is red foxes! Foxes are extremely smart - most likely why they've been depicted as tricksters across multiple cultures for thousands of years ?? #sabagrocers #poundsoffood #oakland #oaklandca #fox #foxes #animaloftheweek
