Today  Recap:  What is sustainable? What is equitable?  Your lesson learned?  Discussion Questions  Course Evaluations (4:30pm)

Food Security  Food security is defined simply as “the access by all people at all times to enough food for an active, healthy life.”  Food insecurity refers to “limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate and safe foods or limited or uncertain ability to acquire acceptable foods in socially acceptable ways.” ADEQUATE FOOD IN KING COUNTY, Kids Count, Feb 2012, p %20Early%20Release_Feb2012.pdf %20Early%20Release_Feb2012.pdf

Food Desert  Food deserts are areas “with limited access to affordable and nutritious food, particularly such an area composed of predominantly lower-income neighborhoods and communities,” according to the 2008 U.S. Farm Bill.

Discussion Questions 1. When you looked at the food desert locator, were you surprised by the results/trends/patterns you noticed?  Was this an accurate depiction or should data have been collected/defined in another way?  And if a grocery store were put at all these locations would the food desert problem be resolved there? 2. At what level of government (federal/state/local) should food deserts be a concern and addressed?  What makes food access so complicated- that is to say, what in your opinion is the major contributor in causing a food desert and why hasn't its consequences been more closely monitored by these agencies? 3. Are there are any successful initiatives in Seattle that address food deserts or urban gardening?  And if so, what made it a success and is one method more favorable to a certain group of people ( like last week's smart growth supporters vs environmental justice supporters)?
