Nourishing Narratives is a youth film competition that's ongoing, asking for a two- to three-minute short story about food justice and what it would take to create a fair, equitable food system for all.

Students are encouraged to investigate solutions, document organizations making an impact, and reimagine what an equitable food system could look like.

Participants, ages 10 to 18, are asked to create films up to three minutes long, shot and edited entirely on mobile devices. Each submission must: Feature the theme of food justice, include a fruit or vegetable as a prop as a visual reminder of the importance of nutritious food, incorporate the phrase “Tomorrow Starts Here.”
