Totally Veggies! Series Why Choose Fruits & Vegetables?

Nancy Hudson, Purdue Extension/Fulton County HHS Educator, will be presenting a Totally Veggies! 4 part series on the 3rd Wednesday of each month beginning on Wednesday, March 21 @ 11:00.  These programs will take place in Kewanna Public Library.

Fruits and vegetables supply our bodies with many of the vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals needed to keep our bodies growing and healing.  These nutrients are important and can help you ward off heart disease and stroke, some types of cancer, may help you avoid vision loss, and help you maintain a healthy weight.  Totally Veggies! was adapted from a research based curriculum developed by Penn State University Extension.

Totally Veggies! will be presented in 4 monthly lessons March- June at Kewanna Public Library.  Lesson 1: Liven Up Your Meals with Vegetables on Wed., March 21 @ 11:00; Lesson 2: Dark Leafy Green Vegetables on Wed., April 11 @ 11:00; Lesson 3: Orange & Red Vegetables on Wed., May 16 @ 11:00; Lesson 4: Cruciferous & Root Vegetables on Wed., June 20 @ 11:00

National Nutrition Month

Betsy Wolfe, Woodlawn Hospital and Duke’s Memorial Hospital Dietician, will be presenting a program for National Nutrition Month at Kewanna Public Library on Wednesday, March 14 @ 11:00.

National Nutrition Month focuses attention on the importance of making informed food choices and developing sound eating and physical activity habits.

“Go Further with Food” is the theme for 2018, and its importance is timely for many reasons. Whether it’s starting the day off right with a healthy breakfast or fueling before an athletic event, the foods you choose can make a real difference. Preparing your foods to go further, by planning meals and snacks in advance can also help to reduce food loss and waste. Learning how to manage food resources at home will help you “Go Further with Food”, while saving both nutrients and money.
