The document examines how marginalized minority residents in three Oakland neighborhoods - West Oakland, Fruitvale, and Chinatown - are from the sustainable food system. It analyzes spatial access to transportation, food venues like grocery stores and farmers markets. The research found unequal access differed across neighborhoods, with West Oakland being the least food secure. While grocery stores in all three neighborhoods offered low volumes of organic foods, minority farmer participation and CSA programs predominantly served white neighborhoods due to costs. However, social activists were working to improve access through school/urban gardens, farmers markets, and expanding the transportation network.

Demand for ethnic food pt4 (glean native)
Consumers are increasingly cooking ethnic foods at home as a way to explore other cultures and traditions. The ethnic foods market has grown to $3 billion in sales as more people feel confident cooking unfamiliar cuisines in their own kitchens. Younger consumers ages 25-34 with children under 18 are especially likely to prepare ethnic foods at home six or more times per month. While from-scratch cooking remains popular, interest is rising in time-saving premade ethnic food products to make these meals more convenient. Experts like cookbooks and experiences like travel provide influence and inspiration for home ethnic food preparation.
Miad Food Web Presentation
The document summarizes research projects utilizing GIS and spatial analysis to examine Milwaukee's food system. It analyzes the locations of different food sources like supermarkets, convenience stores, and farmers markets in relation to neighborhood demographics. Key findings include lack of supermarkets and greater numbers of convenience stores in low-income and minority neighborhoods. Community supported agriculture programs and mobile markets help increase access to healthy foods. Current research examines defining food deserts and assessing the Fondy farmers market.
The Future of Farmers Markets
This document summarizes a presentation about the future role of farmers' markets in expanding the local food movement. It provides an overview of national farmers' market statistics and changing consumer preferences. While farmers' markets have grown rapidly, some data shows a slowing in new market growth. Barriers include markets being labor-intensive and not very profitable. Potential drivers of future demand include expanded nutrition assistance programs at markets, USDA local food initiatives, and growing numbers of winter markets and markets at healthcare facilities. Farmers' markets will continue playing an important role in providing entry points for small farms, though their role may evolve as producers access larger wholesale channels.

This document discusses issues related to urban food security and the role of community gardens in Rockford, Illinois. It summarizes research on community gardens in Rockford, including surveys of food pantry clients and interviews with gardeners. The research found that while community gardens help address food access issues and costs to some degree, many residents are unaware of local gardens or unable to participate directly. Gardens provide seasonal support to food pantries but greater awareness efforts are needed. Marginalized groups benefit most from gardens but improving production scale could help more people.

Understanding Organic Food Preferences of Consumers2
This document summarizes a study that surveyed grocery store customers and state fair attendees about their organic food preferences and sources of food knowledge. The survey found that respondents generally prefer organic produce because they perceive it as local, fresher, and healthier, while those not consuming organic cited higher expense and lack of concern. The results indicate opportunities for conventional producers to appeal to beliefs driving organic purchases. More research is needed on consumer knowledge of food production and access to factual data on organic and conventional practices.

This report summarizes a study conducted by the USDA on limited access to affordable and nutritious food in the United States. Key findings include:
- Approximately 2.3 million US households, or 2.2% of all households, live over 1 mile from a supermarket with no vehicle access. An additional 3.4 million households live between half to 1 mile with no vehicle access.
- Around 11.5 million people, or 4.1% of the US population, live in low-income areas over 1 mile from a supermarket.
- Urban areas with limited food access have higher racial segregation and income inequality, while limited access in rural areas is defined more by lack of transportation infrastructure.

This document summarizes research on the correspondence between perceived and objective measures of neighborhood food environments. Six studies examined the correspondence between perceptions of access to healthy foods and actual availability as measured by audits and GIS mapping. Results found some correspondence, such as residents with lowest supermarket densities rating availability lower. However, perceptions did not always match reality, like on cost. Recommendations include using both perceived and objective measures in more diverse locations while standardizing methods. Future research should consider all food sources and cultural factors to better understand how perceptions influence health behaviors.
Studying Livestock Food Systems- Barbara HAESLER
This document summarizes an approach to studying livestock food systems in order to understand challenges like disease emergence and food safety. The approach examines the food system holistically using epidemiology, ecology, socio-economics, microbiology, nutrition, and value chain analysis. It aims to understand how pathogens are introduced and spread in urban environments and how this impacts human health. Researchers analyze food consumption, demographics, nutrition, and value chains to identify intervention opportunities that can improve health, nutrition, and welfare throughout the system. The integrated systems approach places food at the center and aims to achieve health for all by understanding challenges and finding solutions.

COVID-19 Impacts on the Food System and Food Security in Los Angeles County
Data Con LA 2020
Description
The COVID-19 pandemic has created a crisis in our food system and widespread food insecurity. In L.A. County (LAC), almost 1 million households experienced food insecurity in the first two months of the pandemic. This was documented by our research team, comprised of experts in public health, health policy, and spatial and data science, and our government partner - the LAC Emergency Food Security Branch. The causes of food insecurity during the pandemic are likely complex: there are failures in the "last mile" of food distribution (e.g., food supply shortages, closure of food outlets), and people are facing many challenging accessing food because they have lost jobs, incomes, school meals, and because it's difficult to safely visit food stores and food banks. We are using multiple novel sources of data, including population survey data and secondary data on food outlets and food assistance programs, to quickly monitor changes to population food access and security and changes to the "last mile" of the food distribution system in LAC. This research will identify the people and places most at risk for food insecurity, propose timely interventions and solutions, and advance the science of food systems and food justice.
*Food insecurity--meaning disruptions in regular eating due to a lack of money or other resources has spiked in L.A. County during COVID-19
*Lowering the risk for food insecurity is difficult, because it is caused by many complex and changing factors.
*Our team of multidisciplinary researchers and government and community partners are drawing on multiple streams of data that give us insight into changes in population food access and food security, and the "last mile" of the distribution of food goods via grocery stores, restaurants, and food banks.
*Our findings are being quickly translated to our government and community partners to inform interventions and policy to increase food security in L.A. County as the pandemic unfolds.

Abstract : The aim of this project has been to plot the locations of Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) drop-off
sites in the Milwaukee Metro Area. Based on the eleven farm’s drop-off sites, a public Google Map has been created
showing these drop-off points and the appropriately linked farms. In the focus of socioeconomic interests, these sites
have been correlated with 2000 Census tract information dealing with percentages of White and Black neighborhoods,
rates of bachelor’s degrees and areas where median income is below $10,000 dollars. Results show that drop-off sites
are clustered in those areas where there is a higher concentration of White residents, in contrast to few or no drop-off
sites in predominantly Black tracts sites. As well, the majority of locations lie in areas where there are high rates of
Bachelor degrees, showing a potential connection with educational obtainment and dietary trends. Lastly,
neighborhoods that have significant proportions of the population living below the poverty line have little or no dropoff
sites in operation. Store front and traditional churches have been identified that may act as community sites for the
establishment of new CSA locations in these disaffected areas.
