March 1st kicks off Nutrition Month here in Thompson, which is about recognizing positive eating habits.

All throughout the month, the Thompson Public Library will be having events to commemorate the month, including dieticians sitting in on Thursday story time to help teach kids about healthy eating.

Library Assistant Amanda Sanders says there are other events happening throughout the month, which people of all ages can find information about how to eat healthier.

"On the 24th at 1pm, they're doing an information session about healthy eating and healthy school lunches. They've also put together a book display with information pamphlets to display in the library for the month of March."

For more information on Nutrition Month, you can visit the Thompson Public Library or the Northern Regional Health Authority.
