It's been a summer full of classes for young people and adults, hosted by the University of Illinois Extension Service Unit 18. Nutrition and wellness educator Lisa Peterson appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show to discuss the recently completed cooking class for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders, saying they loved the peach smoothies they made themselves.
Peterson says they also got a taste of a vegetable many of them didnt' know about.
