Around the Table is a nutrition exploration series for parents, caregivers and their children (ideal for 6 months-4 years old). We will come together to connect around the table, share food and discuss challenges and ideas for supporting our little ones with healthy eating. Offered every Tuesday between July 15 and August 19, from 1:30-3 PM, no sign up required (eligibility based on child's age).
