Food Workshops for Kids and Adults
Barrington Elementary recently hired Local Matters to provide two workshops, over 3 days, working with hundreds of students and parents.
Our "Ohio Grown" workshop teaches children that foods taste delicious and have more vitamins if they are grown closer to home, with children creating a collaborative mural of all of their favorite Ohio foods that can be grown in rural or urban settings.
Our "Food is Art" workshop teaches children that there are a rainbow of vitamins in the variety of colored fresh fruits and vegetables, that are helpful to different parts of the human body. Children then get a kaleidoscope of fruit and vegetable "art supplies" to create and then eat their own edible sculptures.
If you are interested in bringing Local Matters to your school or event, contact Director of Healthful Food Education, Trish Dehnbostel at tdehnbostel@local-matters.org or 614.738.0819.
