Every single study I’ve seen shows that education, having proper cooking tools (budget), and access to fresh foods solves this issue…
This seems like they’re only building 1 leg on the stool unless I missed that in the article?
Let’s do the math. Assume “about 1000” means 900 families. $40/voucher x 3 months = $120. $120 x 900 = $108,000 (assuming all 900 participate). That’s the second stage. $750,000 – $108,000 = $642,000 budget for the first stage (10 weeks). That’s $64,200/week for the budget (assuming no other overhead). $64,200 / 900 families = $71.33 per week per family for fruits and vegetables. Let’s hope there is a detailed follow-up report regarding how this works out. [And, agree with the commenter above that providing some education on how to prepare / cook the fruits and veggies makes sense. (As would partnering with the local community to donate some cookware.)]
After having run a program called Earth Team years ago, where high school kids grew numerous kinds of veggies, and once harvested, distributed them at the Gleaners Mobile Food Pantry site, I can say from experience……..
Unless they keep the boxes of goods very simple (corn, apples, tomatoes, oranges, etc.) a lot of people will have no idea what it is, let alone how to cook it. The kids were told the names of the things we were growing, but in many many instances, had no idea what it was, let alone what it would look like once ready to harvest. Likewise, when the harvest was being handed out, many people didn’t know what the vegetable was that we were handing out, and admitted they had no idea how to cook it.
Without education on the varieties of fruits and vegetables, education on how to store it (some get refrigerated, some not), let alone cook it (without frying it), I see a lot going to waste and losing the “healthy” benefit.
