Dole Ireland proudly attended Agri Aware's Healthy Eating Week School Roadshow, held at Scoil Naomh Buite, Co. Louth on May 2nd, 2024. As part of its commitment to promoting healthy eating habits among the next generation, Dole Ireland engaged with students at the event through its branded fruit trailer, offering fresh fruit and Dole goody bags to the school’s students.
Adding a dash of culinary flair to the event was TV Chef Eoin Sheehan, who conducted an engaging workshop on making fresh fruit and vegetable smoothies. Through hands-on demonstrations, Chef Sheehan inspired students to explore the creative possibilities of incorporating nutritious ingredients into their meals.
"Dole Ireland is thrilled to collaborate with Agri Aware in promoting healthy eating habits and agricultural awareness among schoolchildren," said Niamh Walsh, Marketing Manager at Dole Ireland. "Events like the Healthy Eating Week provide great opportunities to empower the next generation to make informed choices about their nutrition."
Marcus O'Halloran, Executive Director of Agri Aware, said. "We are delighted to partner with Dole Ireland in our mission to educate and inspire young minds about the importance of healthy eating and the journey of food from farm to fork," said O'Halloran.
Dole Ireland looks forward to continuing to help kids find the fun in fruit and its partnership with Agri Aware in promoting health, wellness, and agricultural education throughout Ireland.
