It’s Kids Week at the Center for Health & Wellbeing!

Planting a garden is good for your body, mind and soul, and introducing children at a young age to this nurturing and empowering hobby will serve them well for life.

In this class, led by Melissa Goltermann of Momma G Farms, your child will learn how to grow a plant from a cutting and from seeds. Melissa, who offers free classes to children and adults at her food forest farm in Eustis, is on a mission to educate others on how plants can be a part of a healthy healing diet. Inspire your kids to grow what they eat!

The kids will leave the class with new knowledge, new skills and their very own propagated plants that they will enjoy watching grow in the weeks to come.

We kindly request parents remain on the Center for Health & Wellbeing campus during the class. You can use the time to enjoy a quiet cup of coffee at Nourish Coffee Bar + Kitchen, use our free indoor walking track or get some work done with our free building-wide WiFi while relaxing in one of our many lounge areas.

This program is presented by Melissa Goltermann and is hosted by the Winter Park Health Foundation.

About the Presenter:  

Melissa Goltermann started her healing journey after 10 years of being on pain management due to a serious car accident. She found the medication was only masking her symptoms and she searched for ways to heal her body. Coming off the medication was not easy, and her body is still healing. Moringa was the first thing she used to help in her healing journey. Her mission is to educate others on how plants can be a part of a healthy healing diet. She offers free classes to children and adults at her not-for-profit food forest farm Momma G Farms, located in Eustis, Florida.
