Through their TFFJ experience, students learn the value of healthy eating and the importance of equitable access to nutritious food while working to provide that food for themselves and their communities.
Our students are good food ambassadors for their schools and communities. From running fresh produce markets to leading cooking demos, they’re raising continuous awareness about healthy food options.
Students also champion food justice issues, speaking out about resource inequality and empowering others to raise their voices for change.
Teens for Food Justice healthy food distributions enable community members to access fresh, healthy free and affordably in the neighborhoods our school farms serve.
Each TFFJ distribution helps residents make healthy meals at home through a unique mix of seasonal fruits and vegetables plus staple items.
