Brief summary
This pilot study aims to assess the feasibility and acceptability of collecting clinical outcomes amongst Building Access to Food through System and Solidarity (BASIS) participants (s22-00299). BASIS aims to implement a whole-of-community intervention in Brooklyn for improving diet and the social and build environments for English-, Chinese-, and Spanish-speaking communities. BASIS is a single-site program that is being evaluated over a period of 4 years. Each year, culturally appropriate produce will be provided weekly in the form of community-supported agriculture for 20 weeks to community members in Sunset Park, Brooklyn and surrounding neighborhoods. Specifically, we aim to collect cholesterol, blood pressure (BP), and dietary inflammation measures to evaluate impacts of BASIS on clinical outcomes.
Interventions
Community-supported agriculture (CSA) involves a community of individuals who support a farm and in return receive distributions of the farm's produce throughout the growing season.
