PHOTOVOICE DETAILS

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?

  • We want to hear from all corners of the SLV
  • What does food and agriculture look like from your perspective?
  • In addition to collecting survey data, interviews and summit insights, we want to collect visual data.
  • We’ll use your photos and captions in our assessment as well as display them here, on our website, and for a in-person PhotoVoice Exhibition (time and place will be announced at a later date).

HOW IT WORKS

  1. Take a photo that illustrates any of our themes:
    • Barriers or Solutions to healthy food access #FoodAccess
    • Opportunities for family farms & ranches to thrive #Opportunities
    • Water, Air & Soil Health #EnviroHealth
    • Inequities or Inclusion in our food system #Inequity or #Inclusion
    • Emergency Food Plan / Who do you turn to in a food crisis? #FoodPlan
  2. Write a caption for the photo. Examples:
    • Who, what, why, when, where
    • Tell the story of the photo
    • How does it address one of the themes?
  3. Include the hashtag #SLVFoodProject (and any others you wish).
  4. Include the corresponding theme hashtag (above in bold).
  5. Submit up to two photos, with caption and hashtags for each, to one of the places:
    • Google Form (Gmail account required)
    • Text to 719.515.9118
    • Instagram (be sure to include #SLVFoodProject so we can find your photo)
  6. All submissions will be displayed on our website by April 7th, 2023.
  7. On March 31st we will select 30 submissions for an in-person PhotoVoice Exhibition.
    • We will print the chosen photos with captions to go along.
    • Selected submissions will be announced on April 7th, 2023.
