Growing Community Food Security

The Public Health Association of British Columbia is pleased to act as a principal partner supporting the Farm to School Salad Bar Initiative. A tangible example of health promotion in action, Farm to School Salad Bar engages citizens to come together to shape the factors that influence their health. The initiative is a foundational and integral component of the organization’s community food security strategy.

“Community food security exists when all citizens obtain a safe, personally acceptable, nutritious diet, through a sustainable food system that maximizes, healthy choices, community self-reliance and equal access for everyone.”

Hamm and Bellows, 2003
