Our Team

Colorado Public Schools are proud to present Eat Your Radio Reporters, tellers and listeners, who share food stories about the classroom and the cafeteria.  An after-school team  finds food stories at home and in the neighborhood, such as . . .  Who are the healthiest eaters?  What are the healthiest places to eat?  How can we get MORE healthy eating places?   Send a note to Dear Dr. Carrot, and you’ll be on the team.
