Nutrition education is the first step to ensuring a healthy, hunger-free community.
We are so excited to announce the return of The Goodness in Food (TGIF) this March 2023, where nutrition education will be at the forefront of this fun 4-week program!
Through this program, FARSB will guide a cohort of 40 elementary-aged students through interactive lesson plans on reducing food waste and long-term solutions to hunger. Lessons will range from 45 minutes to 1 hour, leaving students curious for more knowledge!
At the end of the session, students will enjoy a special day at a local garden where they'll spend an afternoon planting fruits and vegetables on the farm. Their act of service will later support families in need throughout the Inland Empire.
