Where in the World is your Food From? - Kid World Citizen It seems that in our busy life of fast food and convenience, many people have become so disconnected from their food, they don’t know where their food actually comes from (or what it is made of!). This is the first article in a series to help kids understand more about our food system. Today we’re mapping our fruits and vegetables: with a little research in the supermarket, the kids are discovering where our food was grown and how long it traveled to get here! We recently packed a notebook and pen with us during a trip to the supermarket, on a quest to see where our fruit and vegetables were grown. I let them choose which fruits and veggies they would write down, and they happily ran from bin to bin recording the data. Once they decided we were finished, we came home to work on locating the origins of the foods. Anytime my girls can turn a project into art, they do! We also had a lot of fruit from California, which produces more than half of all of the fruits and vegetables in the US.
