Fruits for the Spirits, a farmers' market at 23rd and Berks streets in North Philadelphia, has brought together more than farmers. The market is a collaboration between Temple's School of Tourism and Hospitality Management, Korman Communities, Project H.O.M.E. and Fresh Grocer. Steve Korman, CEO of Korman Communities, is funding the project. Fresh Grocer provides the produce at wholesale price, but the market even discounts that. The aim: to build community ties while instilling healthy eating habits.
