The availability of multiple farmers' markets across the County and the <br />growing movement to start and foster community gardens has already started to improve <br />access to healthy foods. This also may provide new opportunities for economic development of <br />full service groceries in areas of the County that have limited access to fresh fruits and <br />vegetables. <br />The Health Department through Healthy Carolinians will work with partners to examine these <br />results and use them to further improve the health of County residents and ensure that the <br />County and residents do not become complacent by these achievements. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact with receiving the results of the Report. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board receive the Report. <br />
