Nourish Kids provides an opportunity for children to engage in the local food system through educational games and demonstrations and exposure to new locally-grown foods. Kids build relationships with farmers, create positive associations with fruits and vegetables, develop budgeting skills, and begin to influence their local food economy.
Nourish Kids Club is FREE for children ages 2-12 and includes an activity, a sample of locally grown produce, and $5 in Produce Bucks to be spent at the market.
