Oasis of fresh fruit, veggies sprouts in Wilmington food desert

WHYY By Owner Adiyuh Davis inspects the pepper selection. (Cris Barrish/WHYY) Tyrone White had grown weary of having to drive a few miles across town from his northeast Wilmington home to buy fresh fruit and vegetables. So this spring, when he saw The Produce Spot sign in front of a formerly empty space next to a sprawling Dollar Tree store, he popped in for a look. Inside he found a sparkling new Black-owned business with a Smart TV playing soothing music and a cornucopia of colorful items: orange, red, and yellow peppers, purple and green grapes, pineapples, papayas, and a variety of apples and pears. Wooden boxes held collard greens, okra, asparagus, broccoli, corn, and more.
