Food connects us all
This year, Nutrition Month is celebrated under the theme Food Connects Us All, highlighting the central role of traditional foods in moments shared with family, friends and the community. Rich in nutrients and unprocessed, local and traditional foods have nourished Inuit for millennia. Traditional Food Day will take place on March 26, 2026.
Nutrition Month is a great opportunity to recognize the positive impact of consuming, sharing and enjoying delicious and nutritious foods for health and well-being.
Check out the activity booklet to help you plan your activities throughout Nutrition Month (March) and for Traditional Food Day (March 26).
