Strength on Your Plate is a free nutritional workshop focused on helping older adults incorporate affordable protein into their daily diets. Attendees will learn how dietary protein supports muscle retention, physical strength, and overall wellness during the aging process. This one-hour session is designed specifically for adults aged 60 and older. It takes place at the Southgate Community Library in Raleigh, which offers free on-site parking and accessible entry. You do not need to bring any special materials, but a notepad and pen are helpful for jotting down recipe ideas. This Friday morning program is an excellent opportunity to help the seniors in your life stay active and healthy. It is a quick, informative session that fits easily into a weekend visit with grandparents.
