American Heart Association: Closer to My Grocer

Access to a grocery store is not something that most of us think of as a luxury – but only hours southwest from Richmond, access to fresh and healthy food is not as common for our neighbors.

After a week of filming throughout the state, a short documentary was created that tackles the subjects of food deserts, diabetes, children’s health, and the potential benefits of the Virginia Grocery Investment Fund.
