​Overview

Whole food Medicine is face-to-face, hands-on, food & nutrition learning that engages the senses; the textures, the tastes, the sounds, and the sights, in the garden and the kitchen. In a small group, around the table, you're able to learn, not just from the workshop content but from other healthcare professionals. Each participant brings their unique knowledge and experience to provide a platform for discussion. We all know that the type of food we eat has an effect on our health, but how significant is the way it is grown? To optimise our nutrition, it's not just what we eat, it's how it is grown, which is why anyone who cares about health needs to care about soil. Whole Food Medicine starts with soil, creating a deep understanding and appreciation of soil as the foundation of health between farm, soil, food, kitchen & health. Economic realities have led to food choices based on convenience and finding the lowest price, unfortunately these are generally ultra processed foods. It is well documented that these are the foods detrimental to health.

​

Whole Food Medicine looks at various solutions to the issue of affordability along with accessibility and availability of culturally appropriate food so medical professionals can support patients transition to healthy shopping, food preparation and eating habits.
