We hope that everyone has been enjoying the First Nations Health Authority (FNHA) “Food is Medicine” Wellness Campaign this year. There are so many ways to begin or continue your journey this month, whether that be testing out new recipes, engaging in the three-part webinar series or planting and harvesting seeds in preparation for the summer. However you have participated this month we only hope that you have fun and find something that works for you!
On March 5, we kicked off the campaign with the first of a three-part Food is Medicine series on Zoom. In collaboration with the Indigenous Sport and Recreation Council (I-SPARC) we hosted Jacob Beaton, a Tea Creek Indigenous food sovereignty leader. To read more about Tea Creek and watch their documentary, check out last week’s article.
Our second webinar in this innovative food security and food sovereignty series is honoured to welcome special guests from the Nuu-chah-nulth Youth Warrior Family Society.
