GPB's 'Full Plates' Series Wraps With Solutions On Food Deserts In Atlanta

This month, GPB launched its "Full Plates" series, looking at
hunger in Georgia. One in six Georgians is food insecure, meaning
they don't always know where their next meal will come from. Food
insecurity is often linked to access — in rural communities, as
well as neighborhoods in and around metro Atlanta. More than a
third of metro Atlanta is considered a food desert. Ross Terrell
met one Atlanta resident who's working to overcome a lack of
reliable transportation, which is one barrier for some residents to
access fresh, healthy food. Terrell visited On Second Thought to
discuss the problems and solutions surrounding food deserts in
Georgia's largest city.
