Summary

This study follows 600 adults living in two Texas neighborhoods—one built around a working farm (an 'agrihood') and a similar regular neighborhood. Researchers track changes in diet, exercise, weight, blood pressure, blood sugar, and social connections over time. The goal is to see if farm-integrated living naturally encourages healthier habits.
