A new poster from Kansas State University's Local Food Systems is making it easier to know which fruits and vegetables are available in the winter, spring, summer and fall, as well as food that's available year-round. Local Food Systems administrator, Rebecca McMahon, thinks the poster will be helpful for those shopping at farmers markets, roadside stands and local grocery stores.

As the summer heat continues, it's important to remember that we all need to stay cool and hydrated. This is especially true for people aged 65 years or older. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, older adults are more prone to heat-related health problems. They don't adjust as well as young people to sudden changes in temperatures. They are more likely to have a chronic medical condition that changes normal body responses to heat, and they are more likely to be taking prescription medicines that affect the body's ability to control its temperature or sweat. K-State Research and Extension adult development and aging specialist Erin Martinez discusses the risks associated with heat and steps older adults can take to allow them to remain active and socially connected during periods of extended heat.

A group of Kansas State University faculty members is working to improve food access across urban areas in Kansas. The 1-point-2-million-dollar project, “Development of Resilient Urban Food Systems That Ensure Food Security in the Face of Climate Change,” is funded through the university's Game-Changing Research Initiation Program. K-State assistant professor of landscape architecture and regional and community planning, Shakil Kashem, says their key research objective is how to make plans and policies that can create more equitable and resilient cities and communities in Kansas. He says what really pulled him into food system research is the idea that access to healthy and affordable food plays a big role in how healthy and strong a community is. Shakil and Maria Binte Edrish, a member of his research team and a master's student in landscape architecture and regional and community planning, discuss their research into ways local government can address gaps in healthy food access through better zoning, public transportation and support for local food networks. https://olathe.k-state.edu/research/urban-food/research/grip-award/   Sound Living is a weekly public affairs program addressing issues related to families and consumers.
