Gardening is a great way to grow fresh produce and show your little ones where foods come from! Start planting in early spring (herbs, veggies, or flowers) and talk about what you’re grateful for as you care for them. By summer, you'll have something tangible to enjoy! 🌱

Don’t have the yard space to plant? Grow plants in pots on your windowsills instead! You can also look into community gardens and public green spaces near you to get in touch with nature in your neighborhood!

As the winter months come to a close, mushrooms are a great way of getting Vitamin D in before spring rolls around! 🍄‍🟫

Mushrooms are packed with nutrients like soluble fiber, B vitamins, and potassium. They are also rich in copper and protein, which is critical for building nerve and bone health! 💕

Mushrooms can also be included in meals in many different ways. Try incorporating mushrooms into salads, stir-frys, or add to meat and sauce blends! Check out these recipes to learn more about how to add mushrooms into your meals: https://www.budgetbytes.com/mushroom-recipes/

Omega-3 fatty acids are a great way of supporting heart health and can be found in many WIC-approved foods! You can find them in:

🐟Canned fish like salmon and tuna
🍳Eggs and soy products like tofu
🥑Brussels sprouts and avocados

Omega-3 fats have also been shown to be important during pregnancy, as they are important building blocks of the fetal brain and retina. These foods can help reduce inflammation, lower blood pressure, and support eye health! 💕

Not all nutrition advice is created equal. Many social media influencers promote quick fixes or fad diets that don't work. Choose science-backed guidance to build healthy routines that last.
