NOLA Food Map Project

Locating fresh food in New Orleans can be a challenge in some neighborhoods.

The NOLA Food Map Project began as a way to help returning residents find food in post-Katrina New Orleans. This interactive online map shows retail and emergency food locations in Orleans Parish. In addition to this web-based map, we distributed thousands of printed neighborhood-based and emergency food maps in Summer 2006. New Orleans Food and Farm Network has created the NOLA Food Map Project; an online interactive map, to show residents in devastated areas where to find food: from grocery stores and farmers' markets, to restaurants and emergency kitchens.

Use the NOLA Food Map:

• To help you find food in your neighborhood
• To promote food businesses that have opened in your neighborhood
• To expose "food deserts", areas with little or no access to foods
• To help rebuild and plan healthy neighborhoods
