Fostering Sustainable Food Systems in Newfoundland: \nA Case Study of the West Coast Farmers’ Market
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study attempted to assess the potential for a farmers’ market on the west coast of Newfoundland and Labrador, using the West Coast Farmers’ Market as a case study. An evaluation of this market was conducted from July 2011 – March 2012 to explore its challenges and success, and to seek potential ways forward for this specific market as well as for others in the province. \n \nIn order to assess the potential of a farmers’ market we committed to the following objectives: \n1. To assess the supply and demand of locally produced food in western Newfoundland \n2. To gather and analyze stakeholder views on the need and potential for developing farmers' markets in this region, as well as the barriers to its development \n3. To examine farmers' market governance models in other jurisdictions \n4. To evaluate current efforts to develop a farmers' market in reference to the case site of Corner Brook and to make practical recommendations for continued development at this site and in other communities in the province. \n \nThis research project is part of a larger study of food security in the Humber River Basin which examined the strengths and weaknesses of the local food system in the Humber River Basin through a community food security assessment. \n \n

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
