Use the document linked below to create or find recipes that include some of the ingredients from the Barry Urban Garden. These recipes will be shared within the BUG community. 

Knowledge about nutrition and recipes that include fresh produce can alleviate the some strain from those facing food security to have recipes on hand that can provide the most nutritional value for a low cost. When the produce from the BUG is given out with the recipes cards attached it will not only be useful tool but will add a personal touch.

Please, make the recipes cards that you are creating include a picture that is not a stock picture of the internet. 

Participants will receive 2 hours of service for this activity.
