Feed the Soul: Food & Mental Health

You’ve probably heard the phrase “you are what you eat” and know about the relationships between food and physical health, but what about the links between food, nutrition, eating behaviors and mental health? Join us for the first Foodie Friday event of the year to learn about food and mental wellbeing with neuropsychologist Dr. Nicole Salman from Snapdragon Wellness

About Foodie Fridays

Foodie Fridays, organized by Montgomery Parks Community Garden Program, is a monthly speaker series from June through October focused on highlighting food-related topics as well as how the food system impacts residents of Montgomery County. This year, the series will focus on the five senses: feeling, smelling, tasting, hearing, and seeing. Speakers will discuss the connections between food and mental health, showcase the role of pollinators in agriculture, explore forest agriculture and foraging, share stories of the region’s foodways, and envision the future of farming in Montgomery County.
