What challenge inspired this recipe?
A lot of people aren’t aware of the seasonality of fruits and vegetables. And even if they already are, it changes a lot from one country to another.
To encourage volunteers to consume locally, it’s interesting to provide the information regarding the current fruits and vegetables being harvested in the hosting territory.
Ingredients :
A panel like THIS (can be found online). Or a big drawing.
Step by step guide
Provide a visual of the seasonal fruits and vegetables of the month, by giving a calendar to display in their house. Or this can be a monthly collective work to design and draw it.
It’s also a good way to learn new vocabulary, and get interested in the hosting organization.
Important to highlight!It’s possible to integrate this initiative amongst a more global “sustainable development day” for example, with the visit of a local farm, a product testing, a visit of the local market, a community garden etc. |
Before you start cooking, keep in mind…
It is important that the volunteers are interested in joining the move.
