4: Teaching Kids Where Food Comes From with Jessica Hammond, RD

In this episode, Sarah talks with Jessica Hammond, a Registered Dietitian and mom. We’re diving into the importance of teaching kids where their food comes from at a young age, and how that can cultivate a love, curiosity and appreciation for food. Whether understanding how fruits and veggies grow, taking kids to the grocery store, or getting hands-on with gardening, these lessons can foster curiosity and encourage healthy eating habits (more than you'd think!).Jessica is a Registered Dietitian and food blogger based in New Mexico. Coming from a long line of farmers, Jessica grew up learning where food came from. Her family raised turkeys and chickens, and she began helping her dad with their garden from a young age. Jessica’s love and appreciation for food naturally led her to pursue a career in food and nutrition. Her main focus for her blog is on sourdough bread but she hopes to expand her content to include other whole food, made from scratch meals that can be enjoyed by the whole family. Website | InstagramHave a listener question or feedback?
