Overview

Nourish is a software system developed by the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank in partnership with a local university. It is designed to help food banks track the nutritional quality of their food inventory based on the Healthy Eating Research (HER) guidelines adopted by Feeding America. The system uses a stoplight color-coded system (green, yellow, red) to score individual food items, providing a clear picture of the nutritional value of the food being distributed. This helps food banks set and meet higher nutritional standards and is particularly valuable for partnerships with healthcare providers.
