Volunteer Month, Blue Nose Charity Challenge, healthy snacks and more!
| Happy Volunteer Month! We ❤ Our Volunteers |
|
We are on a mission to inspire every child in Nova Scotia to eat, enjoy and value food that fuels healthier people and a healthier environment. We believe our young people are the key to igniting this transformation. |

| April is ALL About Celebrating Volunteers |
|
From those who provide leadership and bring unique skills to our core teams, ad-hoc committees and Board of Directors, to our volunteers who test and create recipes, translate resources and manage Nourish Your Roots pick-ups at community sites, to those that sweat for a cause in the Blue Nose Charity Challenge—we absolutely wouldn’t be able to accomplish all we do without your passion and dedication. We see you, acknowledge your hard work and THANK YOU for supporting healthy food environments for children and youth in Nova Scotia through your volunteerism with Nourish.
If you’ve always wanted to volunteer but haven’t yet had the chance, why not start by supporting our largest fundraiser coming in May? Gather a few friends or family and take a get moving at the Blue Nose. We'll see you there! Warmly, |
|

| Nourish Nova Scotia operates out of Kwipek on the land of Mi'kma'ki, the unceded ancestral territory of the Mi'kmaq people. As Treaty people, we strive to work under the Peace and Friendship Treaty of 1752 by incorporating Mi'kmaw values, like cooperation, stewardship of nature and sharing, into what we do. We understand that there is still much learning and unlearning to do, and we will continue working to decolonize certain practices central to our programs. |
