Whole Foods
New Beginnings Family Academy, along with friends at Whole Foods Market and funder Whole Kids Foundation, have teamed up to share some delicious recipes that promote nutrition, wellness, and fun collaboration in the kitchen.   

“We hope you enjoy trying these monthly recipes that support healthy eating,” said NBFA Director and CEO Ronelle Swagerty. “This is a great way for friends and family to make smart food choices together.”   
 
This month, NBFA is happy to share a recipe for the Blueberry-Herb Lemonade Punch!  
 
Whole Foods Market Blueberry-Herb Lemonade Punch  
 
The Blueberry-Herb Lemonade Punch is a refreshing and easy-to-make punch for a nice summer day. The punch combines either lemonade or limeade with crushed blueberries and herbs for a tangy twist on a classic. 

Start by adding blueberries, agave nectar, and herbs to a large pitcher or bowl. Then, mash it together and add lemonade or limeade and stir until ready. For the full recipe, click here.
