Manna on Main Street is committed to making good, healthy food accessible to everyone in our community. As part of that goal, we’ve dedicated resources to bring fresh fruits & vegetables to our clients, including establishing partnerships with several local farms, creating a community garden & developing a healthy kids shopping area in our pantry. Of course, having access to nutritious foods is only part of the effort — we also want to make using these foods as easy as possible! Below are links for cooking & preparation ideas that will make using fresh vegetables & other whole foods a snap.
