It was a wonderful experience volunteering at the Garden to Table Farm! Trinity lead us through planting fall vegetables (chinese broccoli and cabbage). Then we harvested delicious vegetables and herbs from the farm. We also learned a little about composting and micro greens! It was great learning about our food. Join us at the next event!

It is unconscionable that access to medical nutrition therapy is not covered for seniors with chronic diseases -- despite the evidence of it's effectiveness. I am committed to changing this, will you join me? 📣 This Congress members of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the public, and patients have sent almost 30,000 communications in support of the MNT Act 🎉. It is easy to take action and even better to include a short story in your message. Can you lend a helping 🤚 ? #ACTnowforMNT ➡ https://lnkd.in/egYqEK2b
