Today we replayed a
wonderful episode from August of last year with activist Barbara Cole. Barbara
is a mom on a mission. Barbara's early advocacy on the PTA grew into a CA
Statewide coalition that PASSED - with astounding support - the 2003
"Healthy Vegetarian School Lunch Act," urging the CA schools to serve
daily plant-based vegetarian school lunches options. After some time off to
focus on family, she founded Lean and Green Kids in 2009, a non-profit
children's health education organization. Since its founding, Lean and Green
Kids programs have reached thousands of students in the classroom, the
cafeteria, and the community. Lean and Green Kids' advocacy efforts have helped
change school food and shape policy at the local, state, and national level.Most
recently, she has written a big, beautiful children's nutrition book for the
classroom, SuperFoods to Save the Planet. Her website is http://leanandgreenkids.org.
