My Project

Food Studies is an innovative and interdisciplinary semester-long course that inspires students to become food citizens, individuals who understand that their food choices have a meaningful impact on personal, environmental, and community health. The curriculum's interactive lessons explore food's relationship to culture, the environment, and power, integrating science, ELA, and social studies learning. We will take a multi-faceted approach to learn about food through exposure to excellent writing about food, agriculture, and environmental sustainability; cooking labs that will help us learn through the preparation and tasting of food, and interactions with experts like farmers and other food producers through field trips to local institutions and farms.

The course has many objectives for participants:

*To understand food as a reflection of a society's values and priorities.

*To understand the importance of food as a foundation for individual, community, and environmental wellbeing.

*To understand food as an avenue to empowerment, citizenship, and social justice.

The reading, analysis, discussion, writing, and preparation and enjoyment of food that takes place through the course provides the knowledge and experiences for participants to achieve these goals.

I am requesting curriculum for our new CTE Pathway- Food Studies! A requirement of this state approved program is Future Farmers of America, the premier youth organization preparing members for leadership and careers in science, business and technology of agriculture. Any help is greatly appreciated.
