Event Details
While 65% of youth say they regularly think about how healthy or nutritious their food is, only 33% think about whether the food they eat has an impact on the environment. Teens in 6th through 12th grade are invited to this special presentation focusing on food sustainability with Madeline Squarcia from the Buy Fresh Buy Local Greater Lehigh Program from the Nurture Nature Center in Easton. Discover where your food comes from, how it's produced, and other environmental considerations. What leadership roles can teens take to support local agriculture? How does food sustainability benefit both human and planetary health? Enjoy local snacks and engaging conversation with peers. Registration is encouraged but not required.
