Food Explorers
Join a virtual one-hour workshop to get your free program delivered to your door. Mini-Food Grants are available to fund classroom food activities for workshop participants.

Food Explorers is a kindergarten and grade 1 program that encourages students to have fun exploring food through the mysteries of taste, textures, and colours. Foods are explored, each with an engaging set of learning activities such as books, discussion prompts, classroom cooking, student journals, take home recipes, and more!
We've adapted this program to ensure it is accessible for all class settings. Find more information about learn from home activities below. Ideas for safe classroom food preparation and tasting with pandemic precautions are available for both package A and package B.
While this program is designed to fulfill developmentally appropriate outcomes in the Health and Life Skills curriculum, it also integrates opportunities for cross-curricular links such as math, social, studies, science, and language arts.
Teachers who complete a workshop will receive the full program, free of charge! This includes a comprehensive teacher guide, student resources, and take-home materials. All student materials are available in both English and French.
