简要总结
The investigators will study a program that delivers weekly community-supported agriculture shares to patients of East Baltimore Medical Center in order to increase access to healthy foods. The investigators will provide adult patients with uncontrolled diabetes with healthy foods including fresh vegetables and shelf-stable pantry items (e.g., canned beans) every week over the course of 6 weeks. The investigators will also collect demographic data and food insecurity status of participants via survey. This program will also conduct weekly cooking and nutrition classes at East Baltimore Medical Center. The investigators will conduct a survey of participants' experiences each time participants pick up a vegetable bag and at the end of the cooking classes. In addition, a focus group of participants will be held to gather qualitative data regarding the vegetable initiative.
