Meet Farmer Bob

Farmer Bob has been growing vegetables for more than 50 years at his farm in Huron, Ohio.
He works with his two sons Lee and Bob to grow more than 600 different kinds of vegetables, herbs and edible flowers on his farm.

Farmer Bob says he thinks it is important for children to learn how to grow vegetables. Because he thinks it so important for young people to understand how good nutrition will help them become stronger and healthier adults, he worked with a team of teachers to create the Veggie U program.

The Veggie U curriculum includes a DVD with seven fun lessons presented by Farmer Bob!
