In September, two FCHS educators taught a “Just Say Yes to Fruits and Vegetables” lesson to residents of Trenton Rescue Mission’s supportive housing. Participants were enthusiastic and excited to learn and engage in a dynamic discussion with the educators about their favorite ways to eat vegetables. The educators provided information about creating healthy MyPlate meals that include all five food groups. The class featured a “build-your-own” MyPlate meal activity, where the participants worked together to create wholesome and balanced meals. At the end of class, the educators prepared a flavorful Garlic Ginger Broccoli Stir Fry for the participants to try, which everyone enjoyed! Some participants remarked, “I’m going to make this at home,” and “this would be delicious with chicken and brown rice.” All said they couldn’t wait for us to come back for another class!
