| Working Title of The Project (which we will use to refer to it throughout the series) | Kingston Food System Plan |
| Project Location | Kingston NY (Hudson Valley) |
| Nature of The Project (e.g. building, new community, economic development, etc.) | The Kingston Food Systems Plan, due to be completed summer of 2024, aims to strengthen the local food system by improving resilience, addressing food insecurity, and increase access to nutritionally dense foods. |
| Why do you think this project is appropriate for the course assignment? | A city wide Food System Plan is a courageous and complex endeavor. Now in its final stages, this particular project was originally designed with sustainabilty aspirations and I think that there stands to be a lot to learn from the process and final outcomes. I look forward in uncovering gaps in thinking, especially since the lead organization, claims to use a systems thinking approach. The project is expected to be completed within our timeline. |
| Additional Useful Information | Excited that this project is local and that my team seems to be just as excited as I am about it. |
