Challenge 2025
Eat the Rainbow
March is Nutrition Month! You are invited to try our “Eat the Rainbow” challenge, where every day in March we encourage you to consume at least one suggested fruit or vegetable from each of the colour of the rainbow.
Why take this Challenge? We recognize that each individual has their own culture, traditions, preferences and nutritional needs. The Eat the Rainbow Challenge is an easy opportunity to expand your current diet and experience possible new and tasty foods. Each colour group promotes various nutrients and unique benefits our bodies need to reach optimal health.
