Interested in other work related to local food, public opinion, and communication? As we find it, we will post it here.

• “Extending the reach of EBT at Wisconsin farmers’ markets” is a project by UW-Extension colleagues. They worked with five farmers’ markets in Wisconsin to learn more about barriers of using FoodShare at farmers’ markets. They also conducted outreach related to FoodShare at farmers’ markets, with their materials reaching 31 Wisconsin counties.
• Northland College conducted an opinion poll in fall 2016 and winter 2017 that focused on perceptions about local food, and places and ways people get their food, among individuals living in the following northern counties: Ashland, Bayfield, Burnett, Douglas, Iron, Oneida, Price, Sawyer, Vilas, and Washburn. A fact sheet about the results was released in March 2017.
• Colleagues in the Life Sciences Communication Department at UW-Madison have a report called “Exploring Public Opinion and Risk Perceptions of Food in Wisconsin.” Access this report, and others, from the Science, Media and the Public research group.
