Harvest of the Month

OSNP-SW is excited to introduce our Harvest of the Month series! Our goal is to increase the amount of Ontario grown produce that is brought into our programs. By showcasing local farms and farmers, we hope to shine a spotlight on the bounty of nutritious goods grown by our neighbours and allow students to feel more connected to the food that they eat. When we support local we:
- Fuel our bodies with nutrition;
- Build our communities;
- Reduce greenhouse gases; and
- Put food on our own tables, and also put food on the tables of our local farmers
We are so fortunate to live in an area that has such an abundance of farm fresh food!
