Slow Food International: http://www.slowfood.com/.
Summary: Slow Food is a non-profit, eco-gastronomic member-supported organization
that was founded in 1989 to counteract fast food and fast life, the disappearance of local food
traditions and people’s dwindling interest in the food they eat, where it comes from, how it tastes
and how our food choices affect the rest of the world. We believe that everyone has a
fundamental right to pleasure and consequently the responsibility to protect the heritage of food,
tradition and culture that make this pleasure possible. Our movement is founded upon this
concept of eco-gastronomy – a recognition of the strong connections between plate and planet.
2

3. Norton – Sustainable Food Policy April 12, 2010
Slow Food is good, clean and fair food. We believe that the food we eat should taste good; that
it should be produced in a clean way that does not harm the environment, animal welfare or our
health; and that food producers should receive fair compensation for their work. We consider
ourselves co-producers, not consumers, because by being informed about how our food is
produced and actively supporting those who produce it, we become a part of and a partner in the
production process.

Community Food Security: Promoting Food Security and Building Healthy Food Systems: http://
www.foodsecurity.org/PerspectivesOnCFS.pdf.
Summary: Community food security (CFS) is a relatively new food security-promoting
strategy that considers all the factors within a region or community’s food system that influence
the availability, cost, and quality of food to area households, particularly those in lower income
communities.
Since CFS focuses on regional and local food systems, it is concerned with the full range
of food chain events including agriculture, the availability of supermarkets and other affordable
outlets for quality food, the involvement of the wider citizenry and local and state governments
in seeking solutions to food insecurity, and the services and environments that encourage healthy
food choices including schools, nutrition service providers, and commercial food operations.
While officially a movement since only 1994, CFS is now practiced by hundreds of
7

8. Norton – Sustainable Food Policy April 12, 2010
organizations and communities across North America. These practitioners have engaged
countless numbers of groups, volunteers, government and non-government representatives, and
lower income people in projects and activities that have improved their communities’ capacity to
meet their own food needs. Projects and activities include farmers’ markets, federal food
assistance program outreach, community gardens, youth food and agriculture programs,
farmland preservation and farm viability projects, food system planning and food policy
councils, nutrition education and health promotion strategies, transportation projects, farm-to-
school projects, economic development activities, and a range of public education and awareness
campaigns.
Sustainable Food Policy: http://www.sustainablefoodpolicy.org/.
Summary: The Sustainable Food Policy Project was initiated in 2006 to support efforts
by educational, health care and other institutions to have a positive impact on the food system
through purchasing. The project has 3 primary objectives:
• To collect and share sample food purchasing policies addressing a range of social and
environmental concerns, as well as related RFP and contract language.
• To outline sustainable food purchasing policy options, the implications of these policies
for institutions, and their potential impacts on the food system.
• To share insight on the policy development process, and on the implementation and
evaluation of sustainable food purchasing policies, from the representatives and
stakeholders of institutions that have gone down this road.

Changing Diets, Changing Minds: how food affects mental health and behaviour:
http://www.sustainweb.org/publications/?mode=info&id=145.
Summary: The report pulls together the published evidence linking what we eat to how
we feel – from foetal brain development to adolescent behaviour through to Alzheimer’s disease.
Due to both the quantity and quality of the evidence (epidemiological, physiological and through
randomised controlled trials), the report proposes that the changes to the food system seen in the
past century may be partly responsible for the rise in mental health and behavioural problems at
the same time. Issues addressed throughout the lifecycle include: preconceptual nutrition;
maternal nutrition and foetal development; cognitive advantages of breastfeeding; diet and
academic attainment and anti-social behaviour in childhood and adolescence; day-to-day food-
related mood changes in adults; and cognitive decline in older people in relation to a life time of
diet. Specific mental diseases discussed include: ADHD, depression, schizophrenia and dementia
(particularly Alzheimer’s disease). This research is then placed in the context of our changing
diets – addressing diet and evolution, the agricultural and Industrial revolution and the upheaval
of the 20th century (namely processed foods, food additives, industrialised farming, animal fat,
declining fish stocks and the increasing use of pesticides). The roles of specific nutrients such as
essential fatty acids (omega-3, or fish oils, and omega-6), hydrogenated (or trans) fats and
various micronutrients (e.g., selenium, magnesium, iron and vitamin C) are also examined. The
report was researched and written by Courtney Van de Weyer.

Food Policy in Vancouver:
http://vancouver.ca/commsvcs/socialplanning/initiatives/foodpolicy/index.htm.
Summary: Under Community Services, the Department of Social Development includes
Social Policy, Social Infrastructure, Housing Policy, and Operations. Social Policy directs the
City’s Food Policy Council, Projects, and Policies.
The Food Project: http://www.thefoodproject.org/.
Summary: Our mission is to grow a thoughtful and productive community of youth and
adults from diverse backgrounds who work together to build a sustainable food system. We
produce healthy food for residents of the city and suburbs and provide youth leadership
opportunities. Most importantly, we strive to inspire and support others to create change in their
own communities.
Since 1991, The Food Project has built a national model of engaging young people in
personal and social change through sustainable agriculture. Each year, we work with over a
hundred teens and thousands of volunteers to farm on 31 acres in rural Lincoln, MA and on
several lots in urban Boston. We consider our hallmark to be our focus on identifying and
transforming a new generation of leaders by placing teens in unusually responsible roles, with
deeply meaningful work.
Each season, we grow nearly a quarter-million pounds of food without chemical
pesticides, donating half to local shelters. We sell the remainder of our produce
through Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) crop “shares” and farmers’ markets. We
market our own Farm-Fresh Salsa, holiday pies, and other value added products. Locally, we
also partner with urban gardeners to help them remediate their lead-contaminated soil and grow
healthier food.
Nearly half of The Food Project’s work is as a resource center for organizations and
individuals worldwide. We provide unique capacity building for organizations and educators
who learn from The Food Project’s expertise through materials, youth training and professional
development opportunities. Even projects completely unrelated to farming can draw on our
methods for building inspired, diverse and productive youth communities.

Summary: A national program since 1996 to fight food insecurity through developing
community food projects that help promote the self-sufficiency of low-income communities.
The Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act (FAIR) of 1996 and re-authorized by the
Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 created it. The program works to create better
access to fresh and nutritious food supplies, increase self-reliance of communities, and promote
comprehensive responses to local food, farm, and nutrition issues.

Community Supported Agriculture: http://www.localharvest.org/csa/.
Summary: Over the last 20 years, Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) has become
a popular way for consumers to buy local, seasonal food directly from a farmer. Here are the
basics: a farmer offers a certain number of "shares" to the public. Typically the share consists of
a box of vegetables, but other farm products may be included. Interested consumers purchase a
share (aka a "membership" or a "subscription") and in return receive a box (bag, basket) of
seasonal produce each week throughout the farming season.

Implementing Social and Environmental Policies in Cities: The Case of Food
Policy in Vancouver, Canada – Wendy Mendes, International Journal of Urban and
Regional Research, (2008);
http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/121504548/abstract?
CRETRY=1&SRETRY=0.
Summary: This article discusses the challenges of cross-sectoral sustainability policies
such as food policy because of the few regulatory tools and resources to support their
implementation. The article focuses on how to build governance capacity to address social and
environmental issues. The conclusions suggest that local governments are one area where new
visions of urban futures are tested and made real. Rather than dissuading or fearing conflict, the
article suggests that productive tensions birth new possibilities. The final statement is that food
policy is “an example of the possibility to deepen our collective capacity to imagine new urban
futures and ask different questions about how we live in cities, and whom and what they are for”
(p. 962).
