Eat Your Words is a statewide promotion of reading to healthy eating. The book Sylvia's Spinach by Katherine Pryor is a centerpiece of this initiative. The book tells the story of a little girl whose mind is open to trying a new food when she grows it in her school garden.
University of Maryland Extension wants your family to be like Sylvia and try something new! Whether it's experimenting with gardening, visiting the farmers market, or cooking and trying new foods as a family, we hope everyone will look for new ways to experience healthy foods.
Anyone can be a part of Eat Your Words! Start by borrowing the book from your local library, or watching this read aloud. Read the book together as a family, then explore the resources in the menu below.
