🥕Carrots, potatoes, zucchinis, oh my!
👩🏼🌾🥔East Palo Alto Community Garden members, Balvina and Sara excitedly shared this past weekend's beautiful harvest from their garden beds.
✨️There really is something magical about getting your hands in the dirt and watching something you planted as seed grow into food!✨️
🥕✨ Our VeggieRx Workbook & Personal Goal Planner is a guide we’ve developed and refined through years of real work alongside our participants — rooted in a trauma-informed approach to nutrition that honors your story, your culture, and your relationship with food.
🍅 At our VeggieRx Cooking Demos, participants get to see the planner come to life through seasonal recipes and VeggieRx Vouchers they can use to bring fresh ingredients home. It’s nourishment in every sense of the word.
🌽 Interested in learning more about nutrition, accessing fresh recipes, and building community?
Our VeggieRx Nutrition Classes are enrolling for September for residents living in San Bruno, Millbrae, Burlingame, Hillsborough, San Mateo and Foster City!
