Our Impact

TasteWise Kids brings individuals, families and communities together around food - inspiring healthy food choices that lead to open mindedness and well-being. We believe kids deserve to know where food comes from, have the knowledge to make their own informed food choices, and to have the skills to prepare their own food.
