Adam's Mobile Market
Meet Adam, owner and founder of Adam’s Mobile Market. After having worked for others his entire life, he decided that he didn’t want to stay up working until 2am anymore. With little ones being added to his family, he was determined to make his own hours. Originally he planned on opening a food truck, however, Adam quickly learned that business plans will evolve over time and almost never end up how they were originally envisioned. Like a true entrepreneur, he adjusted, adapted, and moved forward.
Today he runs a successful business that he built from the ground up and laid with a foundation of philanthropy.

Tyger River Farm is one of several farms that sells products through the Mobile Market. Ryan, owner of Tyger River Farms, began selling products to Adam when he first launched nearly three years ago. They continue to provide weekly produce to Adam.
Adam's enthusiasm and big heart were evident during the short time he graciously allowed us to invade the kitchen at Greenbrier Farms. "We are working with great local people and a great community," he told us. "Community support is bar-none what has kept us rolling through the years. I hope to make a difference, and that helps me sleep better at night."
"There are so many great farms in the area. We generally don't attend farmers markets because often we would be competing with the people that provide products for us. Our ultimate mission is to connect families and farmers. In doing so we are providing healthy local products that are easy for individuals and families to consume."
Here's Adam with his mobile market truck. Also pictured is his lovely wife, Kristen, and his assistant chef Angela.
Adam's "work" has become a lifestyle and he purposefully ensures that family and friends are put first. "It's fun working with family and friends. I love teaching the people that we meet that you can do what you love as long as you have the passion for it."
