Posted on March 4, 2015by stoverb

Just wanted to let you know that the Pure Food Kids Workshop that came to our classroom in the Fall will be featured on KING-5 TV’s Evening Magazine program tonight, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 4TH at 7:30 pm. If you can’t watch it live, you can watch it online starting Thursday, March 5th at:  http://www.king5.com/features/evening/

You may be interested in seeing what this fantastic program is all about!

 In addition, I was fortunate to be asked to join Pure Food Kids Workshop Director, Kristin Hyde last week for a radio interview about nutrition.  The 30 minute show aired on public affairs radio last weekend on several Puget Sound area radio stations, if you missed it and want to listen, the MP3 file is posted on the Pure Food Kids blog.
