Policy Outcome(s): | The Santa Fe County Sustainable Growth Management Plan contains 15 chapters and corresponding goals, as well as policies and strategies, to chart the future of development in the county while providing a high quality of life and protecting natural resources in the area. Although chapter 4 of plan focuses on agriculture and ranching, the two fields are integral parts of the county’s livelihood. Therefore, agriculture appears throughout the plan in reference to economic development, social and community sustainability, and resource (i.e., land, soil and water) conservation. In regards to food systems, three primary goals of plan are to: 1) preserve, support, promote and revitalize agriculture and ranching as critical components of the local economy, culture and character; 2) support local food systems and food security; and 3) preserve and support community-based agriculture as an important part of the county’s heritage and agricultural sustainability. Each goal is followed by sets of policies and strategies for implementation. |

Policy Outcome(s): | This strategy was first conceptualized in the Baltimore City Planning’s Office of Sustainability (BOS) Waste To Wealth Iniative and subsequent Waste to Wealth Report (2014), which recommended creating a city-wide food waste management strategy. Following this recommendation, from 2016-2018 BOS partnered with the Institute of Local Self-Reliance and over 75 stakeholders (divided into four working groups: (1) Food Waste Reduction & Recovery; (2) Compositing at Home & In The Community; (3) Food Waste Management in K-12 Schools; and (4) Creating Scalable Composting Infrastructure) across a range of sectors to produce initial recommendations for a food waste strategy. The Baltimore Food Waste and Recovery Strategy contains rationale for food recovery, local case studies of academic institutions, community-based organizations, and farms participating in food waste reduction and recovery programs, defines potential solutions, and sets ten major goals. These goals are classified by the aforementioned working group categories, and include reducing/eliminating food waste in higher education institutions, government agencies, K-12 schools, and residences, and creating composting/and or anaerobic digestion facilities in the Baltimore Region capable of processing all of Baltimore City’s organic waste. Each goal contains short-term strategies (1-5 years), mid-term strategies (5-10 years), and long-term strategies (10-20 years). |
