Growing and preparing your own vegetables and fruits can help you stretch your food dollar. Adding more fruits and vegetables to your diet can help reduce the risk of diseases, and gardening gives you an opportunity to exercise. Growing your own vegetables and fruits can be rewarding and healthy.

Join Palm Beach County Cooperative Extension Service faculty Keith Patton and Ada Medina-Solórzano, as they present “Edible Gardens.”           

Learn all about growing and preparing heart-healthy vegetables and fruits! The workshop will include presentations on gardening tropical fruits and vegetables, their nutritional value, as well as a demonstration (and tasting) on how to prepare them. Workshop is free of charge! For questions, please call 233-1742.

Space is limited!  Please RSVP to Carolyn at 233-1759 by Friday, February 27, 2009.
