Lack of access to fresh, nutritional food is a problem in both developed and non-developed countries around the world. With the industrialization of food production producing more foods that are not “real,� void of processing, obesity rates among children are higher than ever. If the capabilities exist to produce food, then why is world hunger still an epidemic today? Hunger and malnutrition are the #1 risks to health worldwide, greater than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined.2 World agriculture produces 17 percent more calories per person today than it did 30 years ago, despite a 70 percent population increase.
The principal problem is that many people in the world do not have the sufficient land to grow, or income to purchase, enough food.3 The answers might not be in production methods, but in the distribution channels that deliver the food to people. The main reason behind malnutrition is poverty and malnutrition also feeds poverty.4 Economists estimate that every child whose physical and mental development is stunted by hunger and malnutrition stands to lose 5-10% in lifetime earnings.5 In order to make fresh food cheaper, the existing distribution channels need to be re-worked so the lower operating costs for farmers and corporations can be transferred to consumers. Shifting the focus from the local food movement, an ideology that contains the food supply to those who the capability to grow the food and also those who can afford it, to a more regional perspective could bridge the gap between the food elite and the starving poor.

What’s missing from the local food chain, the regional food chain, is an infrastructure that makes sense and brings down the cost in the game of sustainable food is in distribution ---it’s not in growing.6 Dan Barber: Owner of Blue Hill and Stone Barns
The goal of this project is not to find the ultimate solution to ending world hunger, but to unfold a new model for the distribution of food in the United States, that will prove operating in a regional food supply system is both a feasible economic and socially responsible strategy to equal access to fresh, nutritious food.

WalMart’s Commitment: As the largest grocery retailer in the United States, we feel we have a responsibility and an opportunity to promote more sustainable practices in the food and agriculture industries. One of the most important steps we can take is reducing food miles by selling locally grown produce in our stores. 9
Wal-Mart buys more United States agricultural products than any other retailer in the world, and we realize the important role that American farmers play in today’s society — both in terms of ensuring our high-quality food supply and supporting the local and national economies. Wal-Mart is committed to purchasing food from local growers for distribution to stores in their areas. This commitment reflects our ever-important goal to provide consumers with quality, affordable, home-grown agricultural selections. 10

Mission: bk farmyards is a Brooklyn based decentralized farming network providing local food to reduce the city’s reliance on fossil fuels and offering local jobs to boost the economy. We are seeking partnerships with developers willing to temporarily transform their idle land to farmyard; homeowners who want to eat from their own yard; and city agencies holding under-utilized land. Our strategy is to stay nimble, growing food between the cracks of urban development.

Composting Mission: We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint in our kitchen and at events. Beginning in 2009, we have implemented composting to convert food waste into high-grade topsoil. In our kitchen, in additional to recycling bins, we have designated compost bins where our cooks and chefs discard all organic waste (produce, dairy, meat, fish). These bins are picked up by our carting company for compost. At large scale events, we provide compost bins for food garbage collection as well.
39
The 120-day composting process involves mixing various organic materials such as food scraps, plants and natural wood products to create topsoil. The soil is then sold to local landscapers and retailers throughout the metro area. Besides enriching the ground for farming, composting drastically reduces the amount of food waste sent to landfills, thus decreasing greenhouse gasses. We are proud to work with Action Carting Environmental Services in this effort. 40

The Case for Detroit
31
Of all the cities in the world, Detroit may be best positioned to become the world’s first one hundred percent food self-sufficient city. 63
There is open land, fertile soil, ample water, willing labor, and a desperate demand for decent food. And there is plenty of community will behind the idea of turning the capital of American industry into an agrarian paradise. 63
Sarah Garza. Senior Thesis Seminar One. Robert Rabinovitz & Norman Fryman. Parsons School of Design. Design & Management. Fall, 2009
Detroit is producing somewhere between 10 and 15 percent of its food supply inside city limits—more than most American cities, but nowhere near enough to allay the food desert problem. 63
The city lies on one hundred and forty square miles of former farmland. Manhattan, Boston, and San Francisco could be placed inside the borders of Detroit with room to spare, and the population is about the same as the smallest of those cities, San Francisco: eight hundred thousand. 63
