FoodShare believes that all children and youth should learn to grow, cook and know good, healthy food.

The Field to Table Schools program models and re-introduces food education in schools, bringing the food system to life with hands-on activities and workshops. Students from JK to Grade 12 learn about composting, food gardens, nutrition, cooking, local and global food systems and more.

At FoodShare, we’re cooking up a Recipe for Change: reminding children what food is and where it comes from, teaching that healthy food also tastes good, and helping them to choose it for themselves.

Recipe for Change will build on our Field to Table Schools program to take our vision for students to new heights: a Good Food Cafe in every school, and all students being taught to cook, garden and compost throughout all the subject areas.

Stay tuned for more information soon on this exciting initiative!
