Stories of Change: Josie⁠
⁠
Josie’s story is the first in our Stories of Change series, highlighting how access to fresh produce and nutrition education creates lasting impact for families nationwide.⁠
⁠
When Josie talks about Brighter Bites, she talks about more than food. She talks about cooking together, trying new fruits and vegetables, and feeling proud of what she puts on her family’s table. Through Brighter Bites, her family is building healthier habits and discovering new favorites along the way.⁠
⁠
Stay tuned as we share more family stories from communities across the country this year!

Last week, we were honored to welcome Prince George’s County Public Schools Interim Superintendent Dr. Shawn Joseph, Chief of Staff Dr. Deann M. Collins, and School Board Member Aimee Olivo to a Brighter Bites distribution at Bladensburg Elementary School.⁠
⁠
As a Community School partner, Brighter Bites works alongside schools to support families with consistent access to fresh, healthy food and nutrition education. During the visit, leaders saw how Community Schools create the conditions for programs like ours to meet families where they are—right on campus—with produce and staple foods that support healthy meals at home.⁠
⁠
We’re grateful for Maryland’s investment in the Community Schools movement and for the partnership with PGCPS that makes this work possible. Together, we’re strengthening schools as hubs of support and helping families bring more fruits and vegetables to the table. 🍎🥕

We had the BEST time with the 3rd graders at Kashmere Gardens Elementary!⁠
⁠
The class had a blast making our “Better Than Ranch” dip and “Yellow Smoothie” recipe. It was the perfect mix of hands-on learning and tasty fun — every table got to measure, mix, and create their own recipe! 🥕🍋🥰⁠
⁠
⁠
The kiddos were so excited, and they even received take-home recipe cards to share with their families. Nothing beats seeing their smiles and curiosity in action!

We were lucky to receive donated Fruit Bliss Mini Apricots in NYC, enjoyed by hundreds of Brighter Bites families—including those at PS 19Q in Queens 💛⁠
⁠
We swapped raisins for the fresh, flavorful apricots in our Crunchy Celery & Apple Salad, and families loved it. Fresh swap, big flavor! 🍎🥬⁠
⁠
Fruit Bliss has been a valued partner of Brighter Bites for several years, and we’re deeply grateful for their continued support in helping families discover delicious, nourishing foods.
