The FoodPrint Project

For anyone in New York tomorrow adventurous to challenge the snow, check out Foodprint NYC.  Launched by Nicola Twilley and Sarah Rich, Foodprint NYC is the first in a series of ongoing discussions about food and the city it feeds.

Taken from the website:

Foodprint NYC is the first in a series of international conversations about food and the city. From a cluster analysis of bodega inventories to the cultural impact of theice-box, and from food deserts to peak phosphorus, panelists will examine the hidden corsetry that gives shape to urban foodscapes, and collaboratively speculate on how to feed New York in the future. The free afternoon program will include designers, policy-makers, flavor scientists, culinary historians, food retailers, and others, for a wide-ranging discussion of New York’s food systems, past and present, as well as opportunities to transform our edible landscape through technology, architecture, legislation, and education.
