Healthy Tip! 💡Different colors in fruits and vegetables provide different vitamins and antioxidants your body needs to stay healthy.⁠ Be sure to fill your plate with a variety of colors to get the most nutrition!⁠
⁠
❤️ Reds = heart health & circulation support (tomatoes, strawberries, red peppers)�⁠
🧡 Oranges/Yellows = immune support & healthy skin (carrots, oranges, yellow squash)�⁠
💚 Greens = strong bones & teeth (spinach, broccoli, kale)�⁠
💙💜 Blues/Purples = brain health & memory (blueberries, eggplant, purple cabbage)⁠
⁠
Every time you fill your plate with color, you’re giving your body the best fuel possible! ⁠

Every bite is a building block. 🧠🍓⁠
⁠
When kids have access to fresh, nutritious food, they’re not just eating better, they’re learning better, growing stronger, and dreaming bigger.⁠
At Brighter Bites, we believe that healthy food fuels bright futures. That’s why every bag and box we deliver is more than just produce — it’s potential. 💚⁠
⁠
This school year, join us in making difference one child, one family, and one bite at a time.

🍏 The Produce Gap in America⁠
Did you know that only about 10% of adults in the U.S. are getting the recommended daily servings of fruits and veggies? That means 9 out of 10 adults and nearly all kids are playing catch-up when it comes to nutrition.⁠
⁠
At Brighter Bites, we’re committed to closing that gap—one apple, one child, one community at a time. Because nourishing their potential starts with fresh food access.

🥦 Learning + Laughing + Label Reading = CATCH-ing Healthy Habits! 🧠
⁠
This school year, our Brighter Bites kids are diving into nutrition lessons from the CATCH Global Foundation — where they learn how to fuel their bodies with energy-packed foods, one fun activity at a time! 🍎💪⁠
From sorting “GO, SLOW, and WHOA” foods to building balanced meals, these lessons help kids make smart choices that stick — in the lunchroom and beyond.⁠
⁠
Because when kids understand why healthy eating matters, they’re more likely to stick with it. And that’s how we nourish lifelong potential. 💚

At Brighter Bites, a bag of fresh produce is just the beginning. It's a healthier dinner around the table. It's a child showing up to school more focused and full of energy. It’s a parent feeling supported and empowered. 💚⁠
In every community we serve, we're not just distributing fruits and veggies — we’re nourishing futures. 🍎
