Want to know more about our Programs?

We currently have 2 province-wide: SHEP and Nourish Your Roots. School Healthy Eating Programs (SHEP) support students’ health and nutritional wellbeing. Nourish Your Roots, a farm-to-school fundraiser, helps schools and non-profit child care centres support their own healthy eating programs and initiatives. We have a third program underway that is pilot ready: Grow Eat Learn. This school food garden program teaches essential skills for student success and well-being.

We also develop food literacy resources in support of each program area to help kids build skills for a healthy future.

Thanks to contributions like yours, children in Nova Scotia are eating, enjoying, and valuing healthy food all year long. Click HERE to give.

Happy holidays from Nourish Nova Scotia!
