By teaching children where their food comes from and how it's produced, and by emphasizing local and seasonal eating, we get kids invested in their food choices. "FoodPrints" is a take-off on "carbon footprint". Through the FoodPrints program, children learn about the impact their choices make on their personal health and the health of our planet. Using project-based learning and hands-on experiences with gardening and cooking, we empower children to lead healthy lives and to be stewards of the environment.

Our resource hub is packed with easy-to-access ideas and activities to do in your lessons. We also have interactive Online Field Trips that bring farms and factories to life in the classroom. Designed to support teachers, they will excite primary-age children about where food comes from, and how it gets on their plates. Plus, we have recipes, lesson aids and printable downloads, as well as information on upcoming events relevant to teachers, pupils and parents. Finding what you need is easy.
