Ingredients for a Healthier Tomorrow

 

Nutrition Month™ is quickly approaching and Nourish is gearing up to create a shared understanding of the “ingredients” needed to build a more just and equitable food future in Nova Scotia.

One way to promote meaningful discussion is to ensure everyone is welcome at the table and diversity is celebrated. Sharing food is a fantastic way to build connections—that's why we have launched the Celebrating Our Food Heritage recipe contest! Folks from across the province, including students, parents, teachers, and other food enthusiasts, are invited to “dish out” a recipe honouring their food background, from a prized family meal to a new dish exploring an ancestral ingredient.  

Enter here for a chance to celebrate your food heritage and win a $100 local food prize. Students in P-12, or educators looking to submit a class recipe, can enter here for a chance at their own local food prize! Select entries will be shared throughout Nutrition Month™ and beyond to reflect the incredible diversity our province has to offer. 

This is one small step towards creating a fairer food system for all in Nova Scotia. Check out what one of our incredible volunteers has to say about their vision:
