The Better World Challenge

Read about this year’s challenge at the A Better World By Design conference.  It is to solve the problems of food deserts in Providence, RI, in a way that is replicable in other places.  Our proposed location on East Genesee has the potential to help out folks on the north side of that road, some of whom are elderly and have to cross Erie Boulevard on foot to get to Aldi’s (according to our friend at Meals on Wheels).  Not everyone has a car!  And in our future of quickly depleting oil reserves, even fewer of us will.
