Via the Austin American-Statesman, Yahoo recently covered our collaboration with Ascension Seton through the Food is the Best Medicine (FBM) program. Expectant mothers in the Austin area who are participants of the program receive healthy and culturally relevant food from The Cook’s Nook’s Cultura Cuisine. The program is funded by the Ascension Seton Foundation, with support from us at The Cook’s Nook, along with Farmshare Austin, as well as research by the Michael and Susan Dell Center for Healthy Living at the UTHealth Houston School of Public Health in Austin.
We’re excited to be a part of an initiative that helps members of our community by offering nutritional benefits for the health and well being of both the mother and the baby.
