Fresh Faces, Fresh Energy at The Capital Market!

Big things are growing at The Capital Market — and it’s not just what’s in the garden. This season, we’ve welcomed a crew of 14 purpose-driven, community-rooted folks who are ready to put in the work, move the mission forward. From our on-the-ground TCM Ambassadors, to our climate-conscious Climate & Food Fellow, to our behind-the-scenes produce-moving pro (aka our TCM Driver), each new teammate brings their own skills, story, and soul to the table.

When you see them at the market, on your block, or pulling up with a van full of fresh produce, give them a wave, dap, or a “Hey, y’all!” They’re not just working in the community — they’re working with the community. And together, we’re planting seeds for a future where good food, good health, and good vibes are a right, not a privilege.
