Abstract

Nutritionists have been criticized for taking diet out of the context of lifestyle in their professional practice. Eat Well, Eat Local, Eat Together (Eat3) aimed to combine objectives related to nutrition and health with the social and ecological aspects of eating in an educational campaign. The multicomponent campaign was developed by the Healthy Start Partnership Coordinating Committee, a group of health and nutrition professionals from 6 rural counties in New York State, with Cornell University faculty serving as conveners. In 2009, with funding from Cornell Cooperative Extension, well over 10 000 individuals from 20 counties were reached. Self-reported behaviors on campaign themes shifted significantly (P < .0001) in a positive direction after Eat3.
