Let’s help prevent childhood obesity


We can help prevent childhood Obesity –
By sharing with children more fruits and veggies
With the array of fruits in the produce section at the market, you can have a fun time sharing new fruits a week

Children can learn shapes, sizes and the beautiful array of colors fruits come in.
How awesome is that!

Along with some daily physical activity - exercise regimen such as walking once a day is a start to better health.
