Upcoming Training:  From Pantry to Plate:  Nutrition Literacy for Food Distributions
When:  February 26, 2026, 9:00 a.m.–10:00 a.m. 
Cost:  Free

How do we bridge the gap between complex nutrition science and the daily reality of a food pantry?  This 60-minute webinar is designed specifically for food bankers, SNAP-Ed staff, and pantry volunteers without formal nutrition backgrounds who support community health every day.  We’ll begin by establishing a shared language, breaking down basics like macronutrients and food groups to ensure everyone feels confident with the terminology.

From there, we’ll take a "virtual tour" of a food distribution site.  Together, we’ll explore common pantry items to discuss their health benefits and best practices for storage and food safety.  We’ll also spend time busting common myths and navigating special dietary needs.  You’ll walk away with a robust list of resources and the clarity to effectively communicate essential nutrition concepts to your guests.
