You’re invited to a kale celebration – a kaleigh!
Students and staff are organizing a national campaign to celebrate the goodness of kale.
Did you know that kale is not only packed with vitamins and minerals that can help improve heart health, balance blood sugar, and even battle cancer; it is also economical and easy to grow locally! Add all that together and kale is a definite power plant! That is why Ä¢¹½AV Faculty of Agriculture is supporting National Kale Day Canada (NKDC), a fun day of action celebrating kale’sÌýhealth benefits and culinary versatility, applauding local kale producers, and promoting the eating,Ìýgrowing and sharing of kale. NKDC is a part of a larger movement that is bringing together farmers, healthcare professionals, educators, chefs, and others to officially declare October 2 National Kale Day.
The NKDC team at Ä¢¹½AV invites you to join in the celebrations and attend a National Kale Day event or to encourage you to host your own kale party (kaleigh) or potluck on October 2! Students, faculty, and community members at the Agricultural Campus are invited to Kaleighs at the Truro Farmers’ Market and the DAC Barn on the evening of October 2 (see details below).
