The Vegetable Plates project introduces children to garden vegetables that are sometimes unfamiliar to them, including leafy vegetables, root vegetables, fruits and heirloom vegetables; all types of vegetables are studied.
In the north of France, Le Jardin Voyageur team members transmit what they know about vegetables and nutrition to children ages 3 to 15. Young participants harvest, peel, discover, prepare, cook and taste vegetables to develop their senses and vary the way they eat. At recreational centers or in school, inside the classroom or outside in a vegetable garden, any place is a good place to educate taste and discover new foods.
