What is Veggiecation?

The Veggiecation Program is a culinary-nutrition education program that introduces children to the wonderfully delicious and nutritious world of vegetables. This is done by incorporating unique and kid-friendly vegetable preparations into fun activities and exciting experiences. By replacing food fears and resistance with ownership and positive peer pressure, your children are empowered to expand their horizons while simultaneously improving their nutritional status and knowledge.

Kids nutrition and nutrition education are at the forefront of the obesity epidemic. Governments, schools, and organizations all around the world are searching for ways to reverse the current trend. At Veggiecation, we believe that the best way to do this is by vegetable education. Vegetables and fruits are the most important part of the plate, but not every child thinks so, which is why Veggiecation began as a vegetable education program. By teaching kids about vegetables, we are actually teaching them nutrition education.
