Come check out our new exhibit theme!
The exhibits and Take Home Kit aim to help children build healthy eating habits and a "Cherish Well" attitude.
1) Track the Journey: From Farm to Hand
Explore how far food travels and the energy it uses to reach us. Tracing food back to its roots builds a deeper connection to meals and inspires a commitment to cherishing food.
2) Discover the Process: From Hand to Table
Discover what food looks like in its original state and explore various cooking methods. This process expands culinary vocabulary and sparks a lifelong curiosity about every dish.
3) Rescue and Reuse: Managing Food Waste
Dive into the world of vermicomposting (worm composting) to see how nature recycles scraps into soil, learning ways to reduce waste every day.
4) Master the Balance: Nutritious & Delicious
Learn the "Power of Balance" by distinguishing between daily meals and occasional treats. Cultivate an understanding of nutrition so that Growth Foods (everyday fuel) and Happy Foods (occasional treats) can happily coexist.
