Root Camp - Nutrition Education for Middle-Schoolers

Root Camp is an interactive, engaging, and developmentally appropriate food awareness curriculum designed for middle school aged students, providing information, encouraging discussion, and fostering greater understanding of nutrition, food systems, and how their food choices affect their health and the environment. At its essence, ROOT Camp is more than a nutrition education or cooking course. The curriculum aims to provide students with a road map for making strong, informed, and healthy choices as they enter into a new phase of independence and self-awareness. Preparing and familiarizing students with common food jargon and ways to question, speak about and discuss food choices, makes it possible for them to choose healthier, and more satisfying food options.
