Durham students served Ontario tofu
KRISTEN CALIS: High school students in the Durham District School Board have been expanding their palates this year, while learning the value of local food.
Ecosource, a non-profit organization that supports local food purchasing and education, is partnering with the Durham District School Board and its cafeteria food provider, Compass Group Canada, to turn local teens on to local foods through education and by bringing Ontario foods to secondary school cafeterias. Thanks to funding from the Greenbelt Fund, a non-profit organization that supports Ontario agriculture, the project has allowed students to taste different Ontario foods.
