How do socio-economic communities influence the quality of food products available?

Here is our plan

Community Research:

  • Compare organic products found in grocery stores found in the neighborhood of the students compared to the schools neighborhood (Chelsea).

  • Categorize grocery store based on size.

  • Students can identify how many grocery stores (categorized) within 5   block radius of their home

  • Collect   data, # of organic products   in certain size grocery store

 

Scientific Research:

  • Test presence of pesticides in   organic vs non-organic products.

  • Preservative content in foods using fluorescent microscopy.

  • Determine if products are    GMO
