Nutrition Month 2025 - Theme, Handout, Resources

This year, the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics developed the theme, Food Connects Us, as the message for March as Nutrition Month. This is an exciting month for educators to build awareness for nutrition, health, and wellness.

This emphasizes the importance of celebrating meals and fitness together. For some, it may mean less screen time to share time, making family meals, getting together for healthy potluck meals, learning to cook together, and more. 

Many educators use March as Nutrition Month to help folks understand the basics of nutrition with MyPlate, learn to read food labels, adopt a more plant-based diet, or substitute whole foods instead of ultra-processed foods.    

Here is a handout to help folks celebrate by sharing meals and food experiences together.
