This Saturday, It Takes a Vilalge was invited to participate in the UGA Extension Office’s Week of the Young Child Event! We were assigned Tasty Tuesday and developed several activities related to nutrition for parents and their children to participate in. We also provided some information about healthy snacks that can be easily packed for when you are on the go!

It Takes a Village volunteered at the Feeding the Valley Empty Bowl event on March 9th! Empty Bowl is an event where hundreds of hand made and painted bowls are sold to the community as a way to raise money for the Kids Cafe program at Feeding the Valley. Kids Cafe prepares over 50,000 hot meals for children every year to fight food insecurity in Muscogee and Russell county. Every ticket purchased at this event includes a hand made bowl and a cup of soup! We had a blast wrapping up the beautiful bowls and meeting people in the community!
