Daggett Middle School is breaking new ground in the effort to offer more healthy food options to Fort Worth ISD students and families. With the help of Blue Zones Project, Tarrant Area Food Bank (TAFB), and Fidelity Investments, Daggett is now offering a healthy food pantry right on campus, a first-of-its kind effort for the school district.  

We all know that watching what we eat can help trim our waistlines, but the benefits of a plant-based diet extend far beyond belt size. Most people in the original Blue Zones® areas eat a rich array of fresh fruits and vegetables, which are packed with disease-fighting nutrients. You too can live longer and better by adding a Plant Slant to your meals. Get started by discovering the superpowers of these colorful fruits and vegetables.

Put a plant-slant on this Thanksgiving by adding more whole grains, fruits, and veggies to your menu. With these simple ideas, you can still enjoy satisfying flavor without the extra fat and calories.
