About the Program: 

Detroit Waldorf School's Wellness at Waldorf program was developed with the primary mission to strengthen and build our community around the conversation of food. 

We have a wonderfully diverse population, both within our student body but also our facility and we created this program to share stories and education around food, nutrition, nature and wellness. As Detroiters, we address food equality issues, as well as nutritional education in a mindful manner that is approachable and accessible to all.

Over the course of the 2016-17 school year, we hosted a Sunflower Day workshop, yoga, nutritional talks and cooking demos, as well as a Healthful Holiday series. The program praise and attendance continues to grow, and we look forward to growing as educators with this program as well!
