Centre for Social Innovation - Where Change Happens!

The Real Food For Real Kids (RFRK) Education Program is dedicated to changing the way Canadian children eat and perceive food and is the non-profit arm of the RFRK Catering Business.  Through community funding, our program provides free food and nutrition education to kids, teachers and parents in the RFRK community, but remains separate from the catering business in terms of funding and management.

The goal of the RFRK Education Program is to empower children, youth, teachers and parents to become active and responsible participants in the whole life cycle of food. Our program strives to reach its goal through offering the following:

• Hands-on food and nutrition workshops for children, parents and teachers
• Farmer's market field trips: connecting families with local farms and farmers
• Teacher training programs: providing tools & resources for teachers - development of their nutrition programs
• Lunch-time education programs for school age children, linked to the Ontario Ministry of Education Curriculum
• Interactive parent workshops led by Certified Health Educators
