VGA representatives had the privilege of attending the launch of Jamies Ministry of Food kitchen in Geelong last week. The aim of the program is to educate, empower and inspire people to love and enjoy good food, through learning how to cook. It is also a great promotion for the vegetable industry as only fresh, seasonal and local produce is used. Health Minister David Davis has provided almost $3 million to support The Good Foundation set up the Victorian Ministry of Food, which has a fixed base in Geelong and a mobile kitchen that will visit rural areas over the next three years. The Good Foundation has partnered with Jamie Oliver and The Good Guys to build, equip and run community based Jamie’s Ministry of Food centres, both permanent and mobile, around Australia. They will deliver community education programs about cooking and nutrition to youth and adults.
