Farm to Cafeteria Canada exists to transform how food is experienced, learned and celebrated in all schools across Canada.

We grow the capacity of diverse school communities across the country to foster vibrant school food systems by connecting students to food and the local systems that produce it by:

1. Providing access to healthy local food in school.
2. Engaging students in hands-on learning through food. 
3. Connecting students to their broader communities, including those involved in their local food system.

We believe that food is a powerful connector, both to place and to others. Encouraging curiosity through food and food systems, and fostering these connections, allows children to learn how the health of their community and the planet is connected to their own health and wellness.

We understand that school communities are the experts in what their children need most, but they often don’t have the tools to get there.

With your gift, we can help even more schools across Canada transform how food is experienced, learned and celebrated.

We will be happy to provide you with a tax receipt for donations of $25 or more, by email, once you have completed your donation.
