The residents of this area do not have access to affordable fresh foods that constitute a healthy diet on a year around basis. We propose to work with the residents, three small food retailers, two elementary schools and local government to improve access and increase consumer demand for more fresh fruits and vegetables, multi grain products and dairy products that are part of a healthy diet. Outcomes/Goals: Improve healthy food access and consumption among East Greeley/Weld County area residents by implementing one or more strategies recommended by CDC in its July 2009 Publication Recommended Community Strategies and Measurements to Prevent Obesity in the United States. Services to be performed - 1. Organize an East Greeley Fresh Food Task Force with the East Greeley residents, City of Greeley, Weld County government, School District Six and local food retailers to identify partners interested in making healthy foods move available and affordable in East Greeley by May 15, 2010. 2. By June 30, 2010, conduct purposeful interviewing and surveying of at least 500 residents of East Greeley about their food intake, food access issues, awareness and interest in local food production and interest in nutrition education programs. 3. By June 30, 2010, conduct a survey of three current food retailers in East Greeley about access to affordable healthy food supplies and barriers to selling more fresh healthy foods, what marketing strategies may increase sales and consumption of healthy foods and what incentives are needed to increase healthy food supplies in their food stores. 4. By September 30,2010, determine which strategies will be most effective to improve access to healthier foods in this environment based on the information gathered during the survey process. These may include more local production through expanded local gardens, farmers market, working with retail suppliers and schools to combine orders and lower prices, decrease access to unhealthy foods and beverages, purchasing equipment such as refrigeration units to provide storage for healthy foods, and marketing new healthy food choices to increase demand. 5. Begin implementation of at least two of the identified strategies to improve healthy food access and demand in East Greeley with the help of the East Greeley Fresh Food Task Force by December 31,2010. 6. By December 31,2010, process evaluation activities will document steps and major milestones toward achieving our goal. Non-probability surveys and qualitative data will document movement toward intermediate and longer-term outcomes. The initial survey will estimate baseline data for several health status indicators for adult residents.
