Happy National Read a Book Day!

Books can spark healthy habits early on. That’s why the NKFM created Regie’s Rainbow Adventure®, a fun, educational series that helps young children learn about eating colorful fruits and vegetables.

Each story follows Regie, a broccoli superhero, on exciting adventures to different islands based on the colors of the rainbow. These books encourage kids to try new foods, stay active, and make healthy choices.

Did you know that canned and frozen fruits and vegetables are just as nutritious as fresh? Buying canned and frozen produce can save money, and is an especially great option during winter months when it's not the growing season and fresh produce is priced higher.
