真正的食物挑战

图表显示真实食品消费的影响

2016年10月21日, 澳门葡京博彩软件签署了 真正的食物挑战, 一项目标包括促进可持续农业的国家倡议, 公平劳动和人道对待动物. 承诺到2020年, 20 percent of the food provided on campus would meet 真正的食物挑战 standards, 澳门葡京博彩软件在不到一年的时间里实现了它的承诺.

当地的农场

几十年来,我们一直在支持当地和小型农场! For example, we’ve sourced produce from Outlook Farms in Westhampton, MA for over 50 years! 了解更多关于我们彼此的信息 当地生产商 在这里.

植物性食物

澳门葡京博彩软件公司最近开始报告其购买植物性食品的情况 AASHE明星. 在2019财年,我们47%的采购是植物性的. Plant-based foods are those composed primarily of unprocessed or minimally processed foods and culinary ingredients or are a vegetarian/vegan alternative to meat or dairy. 超加工食品不属于植物性食品. 学生 have been our best advocates for more plant-based foods in the dining halls and continue to help us research how to educate our community on the benefits of eating plant-based.

In 2020, students in the Environmental Science and Policy capstone course analyzed current purchasing practices in beef and dairy milk — two of the highest GHG-emitting food categories both at Smith and globally -  giving Smith 餐厅 the resources to run rough emissions and cost analyses for different substitution scenarios 那 help to decrease emissions.

In October 2018, Smith, along with several other partner institutions, received a 亨利·P的补助金. 肯德尔基金会 那 helps local farmers by creating a market for whole animals to be sold to consistent consumers instead of only the sirloin and tenderloin cuts. Smith made a commitment to purchase whole beef and pork from farmers in New England. 截至2020年, we are sourcing half of all the meat served in dining halls from 17 local farms with antibiotic free, 草和非转基因谷物喂养的动物. 到目前为止,我们已经购买了400多只整只动物. 在接下来的几年里,我们希望所有的肉都来自当地农场. 学生的倡导和参与 has been and will continue to be a large part of ensuring 那 we reduce our carbon-footprint associated with meat consumption and source more sustainability.

气候变化年“全球风味”活动

在2019年气候变化年开幕式上, students from around the world worked with 餐厅 服务 to prepare family recipes from their home region but with local New England ingredients. This project opened up an opportunity for our diverse student population to create and share their cherished recipes with the greater community; it also opened up an opportunity to showcase local New England foods to the greater community as well. Two students, Rosie Li ‘20 and 米凯拉冈萨雷斯 ‘21 created and executed the program.

米凯拉·冈萨雷斯,20岁

2019年秋季, I helped organize “Sustainable Reimaginings of Global Flavors” for the opening reception of the Smith Year on Climate Change conference. 学生 submitted recipes and worked with chefs on campus to reinvent their special dish using sustainably sourced local ingredients. The event was an opportunity for students with ties to different parts of the world to reconnect with important culinary traditions from a creative and 可持续发展的 perspective. Recipes included picadas using masa from Mi Tierra restaurant and a remake of traditional conch fritters with local clams.
