We inspire and equip young people in Nova Scotia to learn about food and transform the food systems around them.
Having nutritious food is fundamental to the well-being of young people — but nearly one-third of Nova Scotia children live in food-insecure households.
And despite the power of food in supporting wellbeing, many young people do not have opportunities to learn important food knowledge and skills that are essential for developing healthy habits and having positive experiences with food.
That’s why Nourish Nova Scotia helps young people learn about food and transform the food systems around them.
When young people have access to nourishing food, opportunities to explore it in fun and meaningful ways, and a voice in the systems that affect them, they can spark real change—transforming how food is grown, shared, and celebrated in their schools and communities. Empowering that change is at the heart of our work at Nourish Nova Scotia.
