Who Put that Burger on Your Plate?

The winner of the K-12 category of the 2009 Real Food Is Video Contest. This music video honors the interconnected web of people, plants and animals that work together to bring us a healthy meal. Thank you to mother nature and the workers, the reapers and the threshers, the seedlings and the raindrops, the bakers and the truckers, the ranchers and the farmers, the butchers and inspectors, the cows and special cheffers.

Farm to School in NC: Bringing Farms and Schools Together

Farm to School (F2S) is a mutually beneficial partnership between NC schools and NC farmers. At its most basic level, the F2S program in North Carolina is a strategy to get fresh, local produce to NC students. F2S can also include taking students on farm field trips, creating school gardens, teaching cooking classes, and even offering nutrition education. How do schools participate in Farm to School? Its easy for a school to get involved in F2S! Some schools participate by working directly with local farmers in their communities. Others work through community organizations that seek to connect farmers with schools such as the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project (ASAP) (www.growingminds.org). However, the majority of schools participate in Farm to School through the North Carolina Department of Agriculture (NCDA) program (www.ncfarmtoschool.com). This video was produced by the Center for Health Promotion and Disease Prevention at UNC-Chapel Hill and Cirque Productions with funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in partnership with the North Carolina Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, NC Child Nutrition Services, Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project and many others. For more information about the F2S program in NC and to learn how you can get involved, please visit www.ncschoolnutrition.com.

Broken hearts, rotten teeth, empty wallets and purple pimples- these were just some of the leftovers from our failed relationships with the likes of Snickers and Coca Cola. Sad, lonely and caught in the grip of sugar-rush-induced mood swings, we bravely kept looking for love, and found it in the most unlikely of places. The creators of the hit song, Who Put that Burger on Your Plate are back again with a new song called I Fell in Love With Broccoli. This Doo-Wop inspired love song encourages kids to make healthy food choices and resist the short-term sugar rush for the long-term love of vegetables. This delicious song is best served with a side of cheese.
