Join us for a flavorful, hands-on cooking series where veggies take center stage — but never at the cost of taste. Veggie Rx: Eat, Move Save is an 8-week journey into fun, fresh, and affordable cooking rooted in flavors you already love.

Led by community health partners and local food educators, each class teaches you how to turn everyday produce into vibrant meals your family will actually crave. From seasoning tips to budget-friendly shopping strategies — we’ve got you covered.

💚 What to Expect✅ Cooking demos & tastings✅ Hands-on meal prep guidance✅ Take-home recipes✅ Fresh produce prescriptions (Veggie Rx) for eligible participants✅ Health & wellness resources on the spot

This program is FREE and designed for adults and families in the Austin neighborhood and surrounding areas. Whether you're just learning to cook or looking to expand your veggie game, this series is for you!
