Generation GF Magazine – Summer 2023
Welcome to the summer issue of Generation GF magazine! Summer is a great time to spend time with family and friends outdoors!
It’s a perfect time to try new things outdoors like:
- Roast marshmallows over a fire and make gluten-free s’mores
- Learn how to help your parents with gardening or weeding, and learn how to identify the plants in your yard
- Make a bird feeder for your backyard tree and spot how many different birds you can find that use it during the summer season
- Spend an afternoon in your own backyard as a junior entomologist (someone who studies bugs) and write down how many bugs you can find and draw a photo of them in a notebook
- Visit a farmer’s market and see if you can find any fruit or vegetable that you’ve never seen before, and learn more about it and how you could use it in a gluten-free recipe
- Learn how to grill a hamburger or veggie burger, or help prepare condiments or side dishes for an outdoor dinner on the grill
Make sure you always involve an adult when it comes to using an open flame, cooking or baking, and using sharp utensils like knives, hammers, or gardening equipment!
This summer, Gluten Intolerance Group and GIG Cares team members will be at a few gluten-free summer camps! They will be in the kitchens helping to create safe meals for the gluten-free campers.
We also will be shipping out boxes of safe snacks to some campers this year. We can’t wait to see your smiling faces this summer. We hope you all have a safe and memorable camp experience for all attending!
Happy reading,
Erica
