School Description

North Trail is a large urban school created and built around indigenous learning. North Trail culinary arts prepares and serves food to its school community. We have an urban cultivator in our kitchen teaching space and we source local products as often as possible. Teaching the whole school community about food waste management, cultural diversity and cooking techniques has been our starting mandate (we are in second year of operation).
