Through their Fair Food Access Campaign, the Zeppa Family Foundation is using multiple strategies to improve food access in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Duluth, including: increasing community and home gardens, building or attracting a small grocery store, establishing a farmer�s market or farm stands, creating an affordable shuttle service to food retailers outside of the neighborhood, and offering nutrition and cooking classes in neighborhood programming. In November 2014, a group of 15 project stakeholders were invited to a Ripple Effect Mapping discussion about the Fair Food Access Campaign�s impact in the community.

Project Name

The Center for Prevention at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota provided funding to organizations through the Health Equity in Prevention initiative to advance health equity through policy, systems, and environmental changes.
