Produce For Kids Launches Kit For Retail Dietitians
The new Produce for Kids “We Heart RDs” program, designed to provide the growing number of retail dietitians with family-focused healthy resources, recipes and activities to use in-store, has quickly gained steam with more than 300 retail dietitians at 45 grocery retailers across the U.S. and Canada receiving the free monthly kit.
Components of the “We Heart RDs” kit, which launched last March, include a counter card for easy identification of what produce is currently in-season, recipes featuring those produce items, “I’m a healthy eater” stickers for kids and timely tips from the Produce for Kids team of blog contributors. The components will switch out with each mailing based on season and current topics of interest.
