This project addresses the limited access to healthy food in Harnett County, NC, which contributes to high obesity (40%) and diabetes (14.6%) rates. The initiative involves gathering community data through surveys, town halls, and stakeholder engagement to assess barriers to fresh food access. Proposed solutions include developing farmers' markets, securing funding for farm-to-table initiatives, and advocating for grocery store expansion. The long-term goal is to reduce obesity and diabetes rates below state averages within five years by increasing food access, public education, and sustainable health programs. Success will be monitored through community feedback and health data analysis.
