Taste Good Series

Nurturing healthy lifestyles

Our Taste Good Series educates students on healthy nutrition in pre-kindergarten through second grade. Capital Roots' Educator uses music and games to make the lessons fun and to encourage students to help prepare and taste the produce.

What Tastes Good?

Broccoli, bananas and kale taste good! That’s what kids are saying after giving fruits and veggies a try with Capital Roots. The Taste Good Series is a five-week-long nutrition education program for children in pre-school through second grade. Our Taste Good Series educates students in pre-kindergarten through second grade on healthy nutrition. Capital Roots’ Educator uses music and games to make the lessons fun and to encourage students to help prepare and taste the produce. Our lessons include games, age-appropriate science experiments, tasting of course and more! Our hands-on approach to learning engages students in the process of developing their own healthy lifestyles. Learning about where food comes from and how it affects the body is an invaluable skill that will serve each child for a lifetime.  

Taste Good Online

This year we’ve gone digital with our Taste Good Series. Students tune in to our nutrition education classes online and with the help of teachers and parents, were provided with learning packets, a seed growing kit that they can do from home and fruit and veggie tastings.
