Build a local-sourcing directory for the 14th Ave S kitchens, South Park
South Park's Latino and Southeast Asian family-owned kitchens already buy fresh masa, herbs and produce from neighbors and small local suppliers, but nothing documents who supplies whom — the Michelin sourcing criterion needs that map before any kitchen can claim it. Standard: Michelin Green Star-style 7-criterion scorecard (sourcing, waste, energy, water, procurement, seasonality, team). Proof: compiled directory + interview photos + kitchen handoff acknowledgment + GPS Method (Michelin Green Star-style 7-criterion scorecard (sourcing, waste, energy, water, procurement, seasonality, team).): 1. Walk the corridor and interview participating kitchen owners about their current ingredient suppliers (local farms, mercados, home producers), photographing invoices/receipts where offered. 2. Compile a directory entry per kitchen: supplier name, ingredient category, distance/locality, and any known sourcing gap. 3. Cross-reference gaps against nearby small producers or the South Park P-Patch and note viable local swaps. 4. Deliver the directory to the participating kitchens and photograph the handoff, logging which kitchens adopted at least one new local swap. Done when: compiled directory + interview photos + kitchen handoff acknowledgment + GPS

Steps
- 1. Confirm the site + address; arrange a staff escort for back-of-house.
- 2. Photograph evidence for each criterion: sourcing, waste stream, energy, water, procurement records, seasonality, team practices.
- 3. Score each of the 7 criteria against the rubric with an evidence note.
- 4. For a waste audit, weigh or estimate food waste for one service and identify recovery/donation options.

If it does not match the plan
- Food-safety or hygiene hazard observed -> note and defer to staff; documentation only.
- Significant edible waste -> recommend the EPA Food Recovery Hierarchy (donation before disposal).
What counts as done
