Stone Soup Week


About Stone Soup Week

Every year in March, the Stone Soup folktale is recreated as the Child Nutrition Council of Manitoba brings the community together to enjoy a warm bowl of soup, while raising funds and awareness for school meal programs across Manitoba!

Why? Because school meal programs need our support!

Currently, many schools operate their programs with limited funding and resources. School staff and volunteers work hard to provide nutritious meals and snacks for all students in need throughout the day. With sufficient funding, schools are able to increase the quantity, quality and variety of foods that can be offered.


Thank you to our Stone Soup 2024 Sponsors!
