Monday - March 17th
FOOD


Today we will explore the themes of Food and Agriculture. We have all heard the saying ' You are what you eat'...well, we are going to get to the bottom of what this really means and discover sustainable food alternatives that are good for both your health and the health of the planet. Together, families can plan a menu and calculate the distance their food has travelled between the soil and plate and explore the ideas of responsible agriculture..

Participants will include SPEC who will be highlighting issues like the 100 mile diet. Also, kids can take home instructions to build and use their very own solar cooker.
