New Cooking & Wellness Classes Focus on Nutrition and the Benefits of Eating Local and Organic Food
The majority of Americans eat too many processed foods and not enough fruit and vegetables. Reversing this equation doesn’t happen overnight. Many Americans need to learn how to eat healthy again. A new series of cooking and wellness classes will help participants focus on what to eat, and how to prepare it, with an emphasis on the benefits of eating local and organic foods.
Tracey Miller, a health and wellness counselor and Kate Donald, an organic vegetable farmer, are joining forces to teach a series of three two-hour classes in Brentwood, New Hampshire starting March 23, 2009. Miller and Donald believe that many of the best food choices come from local sustainable farms where food is grown with fewer pesticides and herbicides than on industrial farms.
