Family Centered events are our specialty at UC CalFresh Fresno! 

This year UC CalFresh Community Education Specialists spent the summer teaching families participating in the Healthy Lifestyle Fitness Camp all about eating a healthy breakfast, using MyPlate, and increasing their physical activity. Parents also learned how to build and maintain healthy bones, got familiar with edible plant parts and so much more!

The Healthy Lifestyle Fitness camp is a no-cost camp for youth provided by the City of Fresno Parks and Recreation. This camp promotes healthy lifestyles while providing children ages 10-14 and their families nutrition education and fun activities.

 Families worked together to prepare healthier snacks.

Educator Javier Miramontes teaching this family about low fat milk. Now that's what I call "hands on education!"

Green Monster Smoothies for everyone!

Being physically active can be fun!

What a brilliant way to present a fruit salad! Educators Consuelo Cid, Yolanda Lopez, and Tacu Vang gave parents a good way to think outside of the box to help kids eat more fruits.

Families learned about different plant parts and finished by planting their own vegetables!
