Teachings from the Land: A Cross Cultural Food Justice Program
Call out for youth (17- 29 years) to join!
The Teachings from the Land Program: A Cross Cultural Food Justice Program is a youth focused land based program that is being implemented by the Indigenous Food Access Program at FoodShare Toronto. The program will bring in various Indigenous leaders and Elders to facilitate sessions.
This program is for all Indigenous, racialized and settler youth. Learn about yourself, the land and one another while celebrating those connections over food!
