March is Nutrition Month
Every year, this national campaign focuses on educating Americans on making informed food choices and developing healthy eating habits.
2024 - Beyond the Table
This year’s focus, titled “Beyond the Table,” explores the comprehensive journey of food from farm to fork. It encompasses aspects such as the cultivation and distribution of food, along with practical guidance for navigating grocery shopping and farmers markets.
Additionally, the theme highlights the importance of proper food handling and storage at home. It acknowledges the diverse settings in which we consume our meals, including on-the-move, within educational institutions and dining establishments, and during various events. Sustainability factors, like minimizing food waste across different contexts from schools and workplaces to household practices, are also integral to this year’s theme.
