Welcome to Fresh Mart 2025 – Where Outreach Meets Opportunity!

At Fresh Start Church, we believe in meeting real needs with real love—and that’s exactly what Fresh Mart is all about.

Fresh Mart is a vibrant, pop-up marketplace experience designed to bring Hope, Help, and a Fresh Start to families across Vallejo and surrounding communities. From backpacks in August to Christmas gifts in December, we’re committed to showing up when it matters most.

🎒 Back-to-School. 🍂 Thanksgiving. 🎁 Christmas.

We’ve strategically aligned our outreach efforts into one powerful initiative—Fresh Mart—to serve our city with excellence and impact throughout the year.
