Fruit
and vegetable school is now in session School nutrition education resources
Teaching healthy eating is a class act! To help educators help students establish smart fruit and vegetable eating habits for a lifetime, Produce for Better Health Foundation (PBH) has designed curricula and other classy kids’ teaching
tools especially for classroom use.
Education plays a key role in encouraging children’s healthy habits. Kids want to be fit and healthy. PBH offers easy-to-learn, easy-to-do classroom lessons to teach them that fruits and vegetables can provide cool fuel, help control their weight and may protect them from illness.
We have assembled the basic tools to help educators get started teaching fruit
and vegetable nutrition education in the classroom. We also encourage a partnership
with the school’s cafeteria staff and with local grocers, so that your students
can turn their nutrition knowledge into real-world practice. Read more about Our
Work In Schools’ Cafeterias, and check out our supermarket
