INVITATION TO A WEBINAR
As part of a national project with the Farm to Cafeteria Canada network, Équiterre is inviting teachers, food service managers and school stakeholders to attend a free webinar on Wednesday, October 11 from 3 pm to 4 pm .
The objective of the project is to increase the consumption of local fruits and vegetables by young people in schools in the country by carrying out educational activities and promoting local supply. The presence of salad bars and raw vegetables in the schools has proved to be an effective means of achieving this goal. This webinar will be an opportunity to discover and learn from these good practices.

- Learn more about the Farm to Cafeteria Canada network and the sustainable food program in schools across the country, including how it operates and the program’s benefits;
