VIDEO:First Lady Michelle Obama Leads The Way to Healthy Food Oases

 First Lady Michelle Obama  has embarked on an ambitious goal, to eliminate food deserts in 7 years. But what are food deserts? Let us define them before we talk about the goal that she has set for us as a nation. In the video below  FLOTUS explains what food deserts are  and her plan to eliminate them as well as the implications that food deserts have on a community. Eliminating food deserts will lead to the creation of  healthy food oases in both rural & urban areas.

For more information on the FLOTUS’ plan visit LetsMove.gov. I have gone to LetsMove.gov and used their grocery template and shopping tips which I found to be informative and useful.

Have any other Michelle Obama Watchers had experience with using the resources provided at LetsMove.gov?
