By not only providing children with knowledge but also with hands-on experience, the material sticks better. With this approach—through education as well as learning to cook, harvest, and eat healthily at school—children are more likely to make healthy and sustainable food choices later in life and know how to prepare nutritious meals. What does a visit to Van Gelder look like?
- Teaching children about the origin and source of fruits and vegetables
- Letting children taste how delicious fruits and vegetables are
- Showing children how fruits and vegetables grow
