Jane's Walk Vancouver: These foods are made for eating (not wasting)!
May
3
1:00 PM13:00

Jane's Walk Vancouver: These foods are made for eating (not wasting)!

Small Group Walk - Registration required and limited to 20 participants.

In Canada more than half the food we produce is never eaten, and at least a third of that is perfectly good, edible food. Food waste is a huge driver of climate change. If food waste were a country, it would be the third largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world.

At the same time, 1 in 5 Canadian households are food insecure. But food insecurity is a result of poverty - not having the financial means to purchase the food you want and need to eat. So distributing surplus food addresses hunger, not food insecurity.

The concept of dignified food access is important. Everyone deserves to eat what they want to eat. Prioritizing choice, respect and empathy in food distribution programs is key.

This walk will cover a wide range of topics including food waste, food recovery, food insecurity and dignified food access. It will focus on Mount Pleasant and the community of like-minded groups working on these challenges, but will also discuss issues broadly in Vancouver and Canada.

Nutrition Workshop

Food & Health: A Tasty & Tough Relationship

Join us for an online workshop with Registered Dietician Karen Giesbrecht exploring how to build a healthy relationship with food!

To buy your ticket CLICK HERE

Sliding Scale - tickets prices are available along a sliding scale. Please select whichever price is best suited for your budget.

  • Food is fuel + pleasure. How we eat impacts how we connect and how we cope. A healthy relationship with food is both simple and complex, particularly as food costs are increasing and we have both a vast variety of healthy foods and an overabundance of overly processed foods available to us. Join us to explore what and how we eat, and how that impacts us in physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and social ways.

    Overview of Session:

    We are all expert eaters – we have been doing it all our lives – but eating well is a skill. This online workshop leads participants through a self-assessment of eating habits, then addresses comfort food, safe food, and changing our tastes for better food. Guided by Karen Giesbrecht, a registered dietitian who has spent many years exploring what nutrition can look like alongside vulnerable populations here in Vancouver.

    You'll walk away with renewed confidence to make your meals and snacks feel more approachable and nourishing!

    This workshop is open to all - no prior knowledge of nutrition concepts necessary!
