Healthy Eating

Many adults have experienced the joy of bringing tiny seeds to life when planting and nurturing a garden as well as enjoying the fresh flavor of newly harvested vegetables and fruits grown in their own garden. Unfortunately, today many children may never experience that pleasure. While convenient, the ready access of fresh fruits and vegetables in the supermarkets has made growing your own food less essential. A lack of exposure to growing one’s own food limits awareness of how food is produced and its connection to individual health and that of the planet - a growing concern in this urban centered world.
