Wednesday, May 15, the purveyor of fresh produce looks to share its Midas touch with its neighborhood Birmingham City elementary school.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/494630467274832\">A Facebook event created late last month<\/a> invites folks to visit its nearly 1\u00bd year-old <a href=\"http:\/\/freshfully.com\/pages\/freshfully-market\">Avondale Market<\/a> on May 15. According to the event&#8217;s description, 10% of all in-store sales will go to directly benefit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhamcityschools.org\/Domain\/35\">Avondale Elementary School<\/a>. They&#8217;ve already held similar fundraisers for both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RedMountainCommunitySchool\">Red Mountain Community School<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alabamawaldorf.org\/\">the Alabama Waldorf School<\/a> earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p>The two year old business is continuing an unbeaten streak similar to the ones SEC football fans hope for each season.

Their Occupy:Avondale win presented them with\u00a0the opportunity to open in the space in addition to\u00a0six months free rent.<\/p>\n<p>You could even say they started off with a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.incubatebang.com\/freshfully.html\">(bang)<\/a>.
