Gardening and Taste Testing with Young Gardeners and Chefs
Celeste Goodwin, RD
Kitchen Specialist
Gardening with small children is actually simpler than it may sound and offers many benefits for the little ones and their grown-ups. There are many age-appropriate activities children can engage in. Join our expert health educator Celeste as she gardens with her own children and demonstrates a variety of activities for kids of all ages.
Then follow Celeste to the kitchen as she discusses introducing solid food to infants, what size foods are safe to eat according to age, and how to start early with your child to avoid picky eating.
Planting seasons may vary depending on your planting zone. Because the Poe Center is located in central North Carolina, we plant in Zone 8a. To find your planting zone, go to https://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/
