Sample Garden Menu

Good nutrition is vital to children's physical and mental development. We serve fresh, organic, in-season produce when available, and other organic products whenever possible.

Your childcare provider is a pesca-tarian (vegetarian who eats seafood) and enjoys preparing fun and nutritious meals. Our menus have been carefully designed to promote good nutrition, and encourage the development of good eating habits that will last a lifetime

I grow a garden every year and use the vegetables and fruit from the garden in my cooking.  Pesticides are never used in my garden. Kids are more likely to try new foods if they helped in growing and/or cooking the food. Garden 2010 will include:

• Romaine Lettuce
• Chives, Green Onions, Oregano, and Basil
• Radish
• Garlic
• Mustard & Collard Greens
  
• Carrots
• Blackberries
• Yellow Squash and Zucchini Squash
• Potatoes
• Cucumbers
• Peppers
• Tomatoes
