At Common Roots, we provide children with active lessons and experiences in healthy nutritious foods. Through the enchantment of video storytelling, our new series brings elementary school learners into growing spaces to explore and learn new things--especially where, how, and by whom our food is grown. In our first release for home or school use you will discover how to celebrate the traditions and nutrition of a Vermont apple harvest. Come along on an “almost in-person” adventure through an heirloom orchard being reclaimed to promote symbiotic relationships between apple trees, native plants, and pollinators.
Follow up apple adventures, recipes, farm to school lessons, and wellness info for pre-natal to elder apple eaters and full video access can be found at commonroots.org.
