I guess living in Florida has spoiled me. I don’t remember ever giving a second thought to whether or not there would be fresh produce available to me. But Making sure my family will Eat fresh and Stay Healthy is just as important in the summer as in the winter.

We don’t have the harsh winter climates most places have which greatly benefits our local farmers.

Fresh ingredients don’t have to be difficult to come by in the winter months. I love cooking with fresh ingredients and Fresh From Florida makes my life easier.

But let’s be real getting kids to eat their veggies and fruits are a battle on it’s own.

You don’t have to sacrifice your taste buds in the winter. I’m spilling my favorite ways I spark my family’s interest to Eat Fresh and stay healthy even in the winter time with some tasty, fresh and delicious meals and activities that instill in them a love of healthy lifestyle.
