Nashville Academy of Nutrition & Dietetics-NAND

NAND will be assisting with farm projects at By Faith Farm (7721 Whites Creek Pike, Joelton, TN 37080).

BFF grows nutrient-dense food and donates 100% of its harvest to people facing food insecurity in the local area.

We would love to have any RDs/dietetics students join us for a fun, meaningful morning, and no farming experience is necessary!
