The "Just Say Yes to Fruits and Vegetables" Project, (JSY) in partnership with organizations that serve the food insecure is dedicated to improving the health and nutritional status of food stamp eligible populations in New York State. The project accomplishes this by providing comprehensive nutrition education programs in a variety of community settings.
JSY Nutritionists conduct nutrition education sessions focusing on increasing fruits and vegetables in your diet; food safety; and thrifty shopping. Each JSY session is accompanied by a cooking demonstration with a selected fruit or vegetable, along with additional educational handouts.
