  1. Two pictures of non-consumerism in the life of freegans.Kateřina Lojdová - 2020 - Human Affairs 30 (1):96-108.

  • Fruit and vegetable access in four low-income food deserts communities in Minnesota.Deja Hendrickson, Chery Smith & Nicole Eikenberry - 2006 - Agriculture and Human Values 23 (3):371-383.
    Access to fruits and vegetables by low-income residents living in selected urban and rural Minnesotan communities was investigated. Communities were selected based on higher than state average poverty rates, limited access to grocery stores, and urban influence codes (USDA ERS codes). Four communities, two urban and two rural, were selected. Data were gathered from focus group discussions (n = 41), responses to a consumer survey (n = 396 in urban neighborhoods and n = 400 in rural communities), and an inventory (...)
