Stories of change are happening in communities across the country, and Sara's story from Bakersfield is one of them. ⁠
⁠
For families like Sara's, Brighter Bites is more than a produce distribution. It's confidence in the kitchen, healthier meals around the table, and the opportunity to build habits that last.⁠
⁠
Our summer programming is in full swing, bringing fresh produce, nutrition education, and healthy recipes to families when school is out and access to healthy food can be more limited. Every distribution is another opportunity to make healthy choices easier and help children grow up with a love of fruits and vegetables.⁠
⁠
Because creating healthier communities doesn't stop in the summer, it happens one family, one meal, and one story at a time.

Just in case you needed an excuse to eat ice cream today....Happy National Ice Cream Day! 🍦🍨⁠
⁠
We're celebrating with our Banana Ice Cream. It's creamy and delicious and packed with nutrition! Hurry up and enjoy this ice cream before it melts!⁠
⁠
INGREDIENTS:⁠
10 very ripe bananas⁠
½ cup low-fat milk⁠
¼ cup honey⁠
½ tsp vanilla extract⁠
⅛ tsp ground nutmeg⁠
Feel free to add flavorings, toppings, or mix-ins like cinnamon, cocoa powder, dried fruit, nuts, jam, coconut flakes, or fresh fruit! ⁠
⁠
DIRECTIONS:⁠
Peel bananas and freeze overnight in a freezer bag. Remove the bananas from the freezer and blend in blender or food processor until smooth. Slowly add the remaining ingredients and blend until the bananas have a “frozen yogurt” consistency. (If you have an ice cream maker, pour mixture into maker and churn until there is an “ice cream” texture.) Serve immediately or store in the freezer for up to one week.

Community is stronger when we show up for one another. ❤️⁠
⁠
Our Greater DC Metro team recently volunteered with Martha's Table, supporting their Joyful Food Market which helps families access fresh produce in Wards 7 and 8 in Washington, D.C.⁠
⁠
As an organization dedicated to serving families, we love having the chance to give back alongside other nonprofits making a difference. Building relationships with partners like Martha's Table makes our collective impact even stronger.⁠
⁠
Thank you for having us! ❤️

⁠
A handful of spinach or kale is an easy way to add extra nutrition for kids and adults—while the fruit keeps every sip naturally sweet. 🍓🍌🥬⁠
