Barbara Finley, M.S.M.
Vancouver, British Columbia

Barbara Finley created Project C.H.E.F. (Cook Healthy Edible Food) in partnership with the Vancouver School Board to promote healthy eating habits among children by teaching them where food comes from and the pleasure of sharing it around a table. With infectious enthusiasm, she has helped thousands of students experience the satisfaction of working together to prepare fresh meals, gain confidence in the kitchen and learn about healthy food choices.
