Last year the UC Master Gardeners and UC CalFresh hosted "Spring Into Health" at the Garden of the Sun, an event where 4th grade students from Yokomi Elementary came to the Garden to experience interactive displays with mini lessons all about nutrition. Phoebe Copp, with the Dairy Council of California, participated in this event, teaching the students all about the importance of milk and building strong bones. The students enjoyed the lesson, especially being able to put on a fake milk mustache and take pictures!

Our next Spring into Health Event is scheduled in March 2015. We can't wait!

Here Pheobe asks the students to point out the dairy foods on the posters.

Learning is fun!
