Regional Food Animators
Our Regional Food Animators work across the province to inspire and support community food action by:
Creating spaces where people can share what is happening in their area and learn from one another.
Building relationships and making connections.
Sharing and providing resources, information, and guidance.
Project ideas and food actions look different for each region and each community. Some of the things that the Regional Food Animators are working on include:
Providing presentations to community groups and schools
Meeting and networking with folks in their region
Connecting folks with information and resources to support their food actions
