In a culture that is experiencing an epidemic of childhood obesity and diabetes type 2 I believe that the teachers that helped create this project are the true heroes. Not only have they found a way to get young people engaged in the outdoors they have introduced the idea that organic foods can be fun to make and taste good. I believe that teaching young kids to eat healthy will decrease their chances of other deadly diseases such as heart disease and cancer and this is what this project is doing.
