HealthBarn USA School Nutrition Assembly

HealthBarn USA is busy booking its wildly popular and educational school nutrition assembly for Fall and Winter 2008.  As educators, we know that getting children excited about healthy behaviors and nutrition should be a top priority at schools today.  With the New Jersey Model Nutrition Policy in effect, educating the importance of good nutrition is as important as providing healthier choices at school.  Engage your student body in HealthBarn USA's one-of-kind, hands-on healthy-lifestyle experience that empowers children of all ages to try new foods, be active, participate in family meals and much more. 

Learn what educators are saying about HealthBarn USA assemblies: 

  • "I want to thank you and congratulate you on a hugely successful assembly you provided at Lenape Meadows School.  You delivered an age-appropriate wealth of healthy-eating information to our kindergarten through third grade students.  The children certainly have a whole new approach to understanding the food pyramid, and are excited to start making healthier food choices. It was wonderful to work the food-tasting tables and witness the children trying new foods that they probably would never try." 
  • "As we approach the end of the year, as Principal, I reflect on all of the events we hosted here at Colonial Road School. One of the most memorable was your visit with us. Not only did you provide the parents with important information regarding eating healthy and leading a healthy lifestyle - but you then extended that message to our students and staff. I so appreciate the energy and enthusiasm that you and your team provided. It was contagious!!!"
  • "The feedback on your assembly? One word: AWESOME!"

We are proud to collaborate with Whole Foods Market, Ridgewood, NJ and Cabot Creamery who are making the concept of trying new foods irresistible!  Click here for the Healthy-Lifestyle School Assembly flyer. To schedule an assembly at your school or other organization, please contact Jill Chisesi or Stacey Antine, MS, RD at 201-891-2066 or info@healthbarnusa.com.

Healthy-Lifestyle Field Trips

In fun and educational year-round visits to the farm, children, ages 3-15, learn about the importance of fresh, seasonal produce and why eating naturally matters.  Their day involves gardening and composting, partaking in making and tasting a delicious recipe, and learning to be a supermarket spy kid.  Children leave with a new-found appreciation for food -- and a healthy-lifestyle bag.

Schools: Integrate the healthy-lifestyle experience into science, math, social studies and food science curricula.  Click here for the school field trip flyer.   

Scouts & Other Community Organizations:  Present the healthy-lifestyle experience as a challenge for a bead, patch, pin or Try-It.  Or, with new knowledge and recipes, earn rewards at home. Click here for the scout field trip flyer.
 

School Nutrition Workshops & After-School Programs

HealthBarn USA is an important resource to communities and we are excited to partner with schools to offer our one-of-kind, hands-on curricula in workshop format for classes of 25 students during Wellness, Science, Health or Environmental Days.  The workshops are age-appropriate and cover a variety of topics, Click here the flyer.  We hosted workshops at Franklin Lakes' Colonial School Elementary (for teachers, too!), High Mountain Road Elementary, Betsy Ross Elementary, Wayne, NJ, Ho-Ho-Kus Upper School, NJ and The Spence School, New York City.  If you don't see your school on the list, what are you waiting for?  Contact us at info@healthbarnusa.com today!
