Our children are hands-on in the garden! Through our\u00a0Edible School Yard, they learn how to plant, grow, and harvest fruits, vegetables, and herbs. This experience encourages a love for nature, healthy eating habits, and an understanding of where food comes from. Its supports children with the seed to plate process. When we have extra food items we offer our families.<\/p>\n

Our\u00a0Neighbourly Nibbles\u00a0initiative helps reduce food waste while supporting our families.

We work closely with\u00a0Neighbourly to keep our food shelves regularly topped up with fresh, useful items for everyone to enjoy<\/p>\n
