Nutrition Night at GRACE Christian School

As part of this year's initiative at our school, to offer several parent education evenings, we were asked to host a Nutrition Night.  Grab Your Greens joined forces with our local Whole Foods, to educate our parents and staff of GRACE on the importance of eating a whole foods diet.   Our friend, Joelle, who also happens to be the Healthy Eating Specialist at Whole Foods in Cary, talked about the Four Pillars of Healthy Eating, the Whole Foods Health Starts Here program, and had a Q&A session.  Everyone in attendance sampled Garlicky Kale (on the WF salad bar), Romero's Lentil Salad, and California Quinoa (both found at the WF prepared salads counter), an abundance of beautiful fresh fruit, and Black Bean Brownies .  Joelle brought along her Vitamix and prepared green smoothies.  There were fun Whole Foods door prizes and everyone left with an awesome Whole Foods Healthy Eating Handbook.
