City Green’s Eat Better Tonight program aims to introduce farm-fresh vegetables and food system issues to community members in northern New Jersey food desert regions through hands-on recipe workshops.

​

Workshops are available in both English and Spanish, and offer information on preparing healthy meals; taste tests of seasonal vegetables; recipes and cooking techniques; and information on accessing local foods, and making the most of federal food benefits at food retailers. Participants learn strategies on how to access and incorporate local food into everyday living.
