Like you, Foodwise believes all kids should have access to fresh, healthy food and feel that they have agency in their food choices. When you donate to Foodwise, you are supporting free food education for thousands of SFUSD students, so they can experience the joys of the farmers market and grow up engaged in their food community.
Foodwise Kids & Families is a free program for San Francisco elementary school students that uses the farmers market as a classroom for empowering the next generation of healthy eaters. Each year, Foodwise serves about 3,000 students and adults through field trips to the farmers market, on-site cooking classes, and family cook nights.
In this new video from Foodwise, kids, parents, educators, and farmers share why it’s important to nurture children’s love for fruits and vegetables, teach them essential cooking skills, and raise their awareness about their role in a sustainable food system. |
