In collaboration with the Let's Talk Science Partnership Program, The Foodshed Project ran a pilot program where they offered grants of up to $50 to be used on science fair supplies if their project involved the topic of food sustainability. Staff from Let's Talk Science and The Foodshed Project developed a promotional video, guidebook and PowerPoint presentation to help explain what food sustainability is and also how to put together a successful science fair project. The workshop also involved a hands-on activity where the students ranked their lunch on nutrition, garbage generated and food miles. In 2009 the program was offered to 5 different grade 7/8 classes in 2 different schools and 5 grants were awarded. Please contact the Foodshed Project if interested;
