I think it is great...Heidi, what a beautiful post! I think it is great that Andrew gardens with you and is also learning how to eat better and even better yet how to grow your own veggies! I have 2 tomatoes in containers and can't wait to get some from my plants. I would have done raised beds but we moved to late this year to do that-next year though raised beds of veggies it will be!! Good for you and Andrew!

I work in a school cafeteria and even though we offer vegetbles daily,(and well prepared veggies at that, our cookgraduated with a culinary degree from a prominent University!) the majority of children we serve cannot be cajoled,or tempted into eating them. Worst of all, I cannot believe how many of the children look at the vegetable offerings and ask, "What is that?"<br />We aren't talking about anything exotic, they don't know what peas and corn are! My school system is in an affluent suburb, not an inner city. With all of the complaints against school lunches, the bottom line is that parents themselves are guiltiest of feeding their children a diet heavy in processed foods and very few vegetables. Our girls were raised with a garden and enjoy all kinds of vegetables. Raising kids with gardening is one of the best ways to get them interested in eating right!Kathleen Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11551093555973581448noreply@blogger.com
