They were very excited when they got to plant their own pizza garden to take home.  Children can easily relate to the story and Ms Fitz is engaging and patient.  I am looking forward to having her return!”\n\nAmanda || Children’s Librarian

For over an hour, Jodie read, entertained and engaged 32 enchanted children, patiently instructing them all on creating their very own “pizza garden” to take home. The kids, all from the Lake George Youth Commission’s Primary Enrichment Program, absolutely loved Jodie and proudly left with their individual gardens. I found Jodie to be more than a pleasure to work with. She was extremely flexible with scheduling the program and very accommodating when it became apparent that we would have more participants than originally planned for.
I would highly recommend Jodie and her ‘Fidget Grows A Pizza Garden’ Program, to any organization or parent/caregiver interested in providing an entertaining and educational experience for their young children.”\n\nBarb Durkish || Library Director

Jodie’s passion for children’s nutrition and education was the perfect match to the farmers’ market’s mission to provide food access to all ages and economic levels.
Her book was brought to life on-site at the farmers’ market as children enjoyed making mini-pizzas with Pizza Works in Ballston Spa, planting their own pizza garden with the Saratoga Springs Public Library, and hearing Jodie Fitz read her uplifting and empowering story aloud for parents, children, local farmers, and customers.
We couldn’t be more pleased with the experience, and we love the message and energy that Jodie brought to our market. Jodie takes nutrition education to the next level with a positive experience and a smile. We hope to have the opportunity to work with Jodie and her team again!”\n\nJulia Howard || Market Administrator, SFMA\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][cs_element_row _id=”34″ ][cs_element_column _id=”35″ ][cs_element_text _id=”36″ ][cs_content_seo]Thank You to Our Sponsors\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_layout_row _id=”37″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”38″ ][cs_element_image _id=”39″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”40″ ][cs_element_image _id=”41″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”42″ ][cs_element_image _id=”43″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”44″ ][cs_element_image _id=”45″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”46″ ][cs_element_image _id=”47″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][/cs_element_column][/cs_element_row][cs_element_layout_row _id=”48″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”49″ ][cs_element_text _id=”50″ ][cs_content_seo]Purchase a classroom guide and kit here!\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”51″ ][x_button size=”global” block=”true” circle=”false” icon_only=”false” href=”https://www.jodiefitz.com/fidget-book/fidget-classroom-kit/” title=”” target=”” info=”none” info_place=”top” info_trigger=”hover” info_content=””]Click Here![/x_button][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][/cs_element_section][/cs_content]
