Food For Us! / Des aliments pour nous! (Grades 2-3)
Elementary TeachersFood For Us! tackles the big idea of what makes a meal healthy. Each lesson has opportunities for experiential learning and tasting, helping students investigate how they can make their own healthy meal choices. Along the way, they learn more about where food comes from.

Thank you for your interest in Food For Us! We are currently updating the program and are no longer offering workshops at this time.
In the meantime, feel free to download our virtual Food For Us! resources.
If you currently teach the program, you will be provided with the updated program at no cost. Further updates will be provided online and through our regular newsletter in the coming months.
Thank you for your patience during this time. Please feel free to connect with us at nutrition@bcdairy.ca if you have any questions or comments.
