Buy a produce box, support schools & farmers!

 

Students around the province will soon be gearing up to sell boxes of produce through our Nourish Your Roots program. Entering into its fourth year, Nourish Your Roots are a healthy fundraising option to support healthy eating programs like breakfasts, cooking clubs and school food gardens, all while supporting the local economy. Farmers receive fair payment for their fresh produce and all funds generated through Nourish Your Roots remain in the province.

Participating schools will be taking orders for boxes in the upcoming weeks. We’re anticipating 15,000 Nourish Your Roots boxes will be sold this fall!

To find out more, including what schools are selling in your area check out Nourish Your Roots.

Let’s celebrate the harvest and build up healthy school communities.
