Searching for fresh produce in the Sixth Suffolk

My (first! and totally amateur!) video project on the challenges around finding fresh produce in Boston's Sixth Suffolk. (And trying to explain why I keep ending up in the McD's drive-thru... mmmmmm Big Mac....) The Sixth Suffolk is currently represented by Rep. Willie Mae Allen and comprises the bulk of Mattapan, parts of North Dorchester and Roslindale. There are approximately 39,000 people living in the district. There are 2 supermarkets. Only one has a decent produce selection. Read more.

Help find Jeffrey Phillips

A friend who is a local with us at the Dogwood Cafe in JP has gone missing in Braintree. I'm reaching out to the Universal Hub community in the hopes that someone reading might be able to help in some way.

Jeffrey Adam Phillips has been missing since Friday July 24, 2009. He was last heard from via a cell phone call with a friend and his mother around 7:30 PM and he was at his house. Jeff had plans to meet his mother Saturday morning but was never heard from.
