Community Food Survey Needs Participants Like You - a podcast by Portage Health Foundation

Taking 20 minutes out of your day will help researchers better understand the Western U.P. Food System. That’s the idea behind the recently announced Regional Food Systems Assessment that Portage Health Foundation (PHF) is funding in partnership with Michigan Technological University, Western U.P. Food Systems Council and Western Upper Peninsula Planning & Development Region.

That’s the discussion topic in this episode of the PHF Podcast as Michigan Tech Assistant Professor Angie Carter, Ph.D., joins PHF’s Director of Community Health Dr. Michelle Seguin to talk about the importance of this community food survey, what they hope to accomplish with the gathered data, who they are hoping will complete the survey and how the survey came together.

Interested residents may access the survey at surveymonkey.com/r/wupfoodsurvey. The online survey is open now and will close on March 31, 2022. It's estimated the survey should take less than 20 minutes to complete. Only one person per household may complete the survey. The survey is open to all Keweenaw, Houghton, Baraga, Gogebic, Iron and Ontonagon County residents 18 years of age or older.
