Combating America’s Food Deserts

November 4, 2013 by Mackenzie Madden

Check out this recent report from Marion Phillips, a second year Master of City and Regional Planning Candidate in the College of Architecture at Georgia Tech. It includes striking maps, like the one shown below, which investigate the presence of “food deserts” in Atlanta. Looking beyond our city, it draws on lessons learned from other parts of the country to address the scarcity of healthy, fresh food in many communities. Download the full report here: Combating America’s Food Deserts. Thanks for sharing Marion, and great work!
