关于我们
As seen in TIME: We are on the road to integrating into healthcare! https://time.com/7005880/americans-prescriptions-healthy-food-is-medicine/ Many people are not able to eat healthy fruits and vegetables because those foods simply aren’t available or affordable where they live. Vouchers 4 Veggies is changing that. We distribute vouchers by working through local health clinics and community-based organizations that participants already know and trust, who also teach them about nutrition. Participants then use vouchers to make their own purchasing decisions at our partner stores in their own neighborhoods. With more customers buying fresh produce, local vendors increase the variety and quality of fresh fruits and vegetables they offer. Everyone in the neighborhood benefits. The program was founded as EatSF in 2015 by Dr. Hilary Seligman, a nationally recognized expert on the intersection between food insecurity and health. Since its launch, V4V has achieved rapid success, empowering tens of thousands of people to increase their fruit and vegetable consumption by at least one serving per day and infusing millions of dollars of produce purchases into food insecure neighborhoods. V4V has established strong multi-sector collaborations that include 200+ community distribution points for vouchers and a robust network of 40+ corner stores, grocers, and farmer’s markets that accept the vouchers. V4V is recognized as an evidence-based model for creating equitable local food systems and has been optimized for national replication, including programs in Los Angeles, rural California, Colorado, Virginia, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Please visit our website to learn about the breadth of our programs, research, and impact. https://eatsfvoucher.org/

Sustainable Food Systems Senior Specialist at Natural Resources Defense Council
One of my early projects with NRDC's Food Matters team was to help with a map that would show where the soup kitchens were in relation to food businesses so that we could try to aggregate potential food donors on a pick up route. Now I often want to know where the composters are relative to the potential food scraps generators. All of these questions and more can be facilitated with a tool that EPA keeps expanding with better and more populated data sets! Check out the latest version of the Excess Food Opportunities Map with A LOT more farmers markets, many more food banks and pantries, and additional recyclers. https://lnkd.in/gPbPiFz8
