June Is Fresh Fruit And Vegetables Month

June Is Fresh Fruit And Vegetables Month
That means you should eat abundance of both fruit and vegetables especially for the summer  time their is a lot of home gardens overflowing and Farmers Market filled with great choices
 and as you know  you should  at least eat 3 to 5 servings of vegetables  a day and  fresh fruit you should eat least 2 to 4 servings a day.This may sound a little overboard but really it is not it is always the healthier choice over soda or chips so if you cut those out  of you  meals or snacks  you can accomplish eating healthier snacks.Even if you don't like fruit and vegetables
you should at least give it a  try for this month  just think of it as healthy challenge so I urge all of you to put down the candy,chips or what ever junk food is your favorite and encourage you to give your taste buds a treat of some fresh celery or carrots maybe some broccoli or  sweet peas some apples,orange,strawberry ,mango what ever you prefer make a smoothie make a fruit and veggie platter to snack on .
During this month you will notice a lot of celebrations taking place so go out and celebrate and enjoy with your  family.This link contains free resources and information http://healthymeals.nal.usda.gov/resource-library/farm-school
