Our Work

Florida Nutrition Education

Eat Healthy. Shop Smart. Be Well.

With a mission to increase access to healthy, nutritious food, Feeding Florida finds it critical for our food bank network to also educate families and individuals so they can make healthy food choices and best use of their food budgets.

Our nutrition program, Florida Nutrition Education, works throughout our food bank network to teach individuals, seniors, and families how to stretch their food budgets, lead physically active lifestyles, and shop for and cook healthy meals.

Our dedicated Florida Nutrition Ed website is where you can:

  • Find the classes offered in your county or connect with your local Florida Nutrition Ed provider.
  • Try our tasty recipes that have been culled to highlight seasonal produce, a variety of options for the whole family, and most importantly, meals that are nutritious and affordable.
  • Check out some of our tips that will get you eating better, saving money, and moving more.

Nutrition education classes designed by our registered dieticians are also available online, so you can take these FREE online classes at your own pace from anywhere. The courses for adults are designs to help SNAP eligible families make the best use of their food budget, while the classes for kids are taught at their level and encourage physical activity and healthy food choices.
