South West Fife Community Food Map - 2023

Mapping Farms and Food Security

We has a terrific workshop on mapping farms and food security on March 24th, 2023. It's the first on this topic. We're planning more since so many communities are working to establish local foodways and production, like the South West Fife Community Food Map being created in 2023 by the Scottish Coalfields Regeneration Trust.

It was wonderful to have so much experience and hopefulness in the room, and hear about work underway in the US, Cuba England and Scotland. Eight people participated, ranging from long time Green Mapmakers to never having made a map, and two of us had presentations ready.

Here is the background slidedeck with many examples shown by Wendy Brawer, our Director, and here is Mary Hunt’s detailed presentation on how she organizes her data for the extensive FEEDJeffco Green Map (FEED = food, education and enterprise development) and Foodbank Growers website. 
 
Please add your comments to this Survey to help us finalize the Food Icon set! You can already add these icons to your map made on the Green Map Platform. Check under About for the tutorials you may need.
 
Of course, you can create a print map or make other formats to activate a local movement for food security and farming, too!
