Nutrition Education at the Coastal Bend Food Bank (CBFB) inspires change in food choices and behaviors of children and adults so they can live healthier lives. We emphasize a lifestyle rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meats, water, and daily exercise. We strive to collaborate with other community partners to ensure everyone can access fresh fruits and vegetables.
