Carver Jones Market is a grocery store located at 4800 Gary Avenue in Fairfield. It was opened in July 2024 by James Harris with support from the non-profit Clerestory and Urban Hope Community Church, which owns the building. The name of the business honors Black food industry pioneers George Washington Carver and Frederick McKinley Jones.

In August 2024 Cara McClure's Faith and Works provided $55 in groceries to the first 55 seniors to shop that day.
