Topic/Speaker: The Farm Fresh Foods for Healthy Kids Study by Marilyn Sitaker, MPH - Marilyn will review this five-year community-based, randomized intervention trial conducted in New York, North Carolina, Vermont, and Washington. The intervention consisted of subsidized, or “cost-offset,” community supported agriculture (CSA) shares.  Payments could be made on a weekly basis, with the option of using SNAP/EBT benefits.  Nine skill-based and seasonally-tailored healthy eating classes were offered, along with basic kitchen tools. This talk presents the main nutrition findings, comparing changes in fruit and vegetable intake for caregivers and children in the intervention group to those in the control group.

Washington State Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics

Welcome to the 2026-2027 membership year! As we look ahead, my focus is on strengthening the organizational structure of our Academy, supporting modernization and innovation within the field of dietetics, and fostering a strong, connected community of nutrition professionals across Washington.

This year, we hope to create more opportunities for collaboration, professional engagement, and meaningful connections at both the state and district levels. As our profession continues to evolve locally and nationally, we remain committed to supporting our members through education, advocacy, and community.

Please stay connected through our website, social media, and monthly e-blasts for updates, events, and opportunities to get involved. I am honored to serve in this role and look forward to working alongside all of you this year.
