• Change in amount of vegetables eaten [ Time Frame: Baseline, at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 18 weeks and 30 weeks ]
  Self-reported number of vegetables eaten per day (e.g. 2 vegetables/day) will be obtained by the survey.
• Change in weight (kg) [ Time Frame: Baseline, at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 18 weeks and 30 weeks ]
  Recorded from Electronic Medical Record (EMR) or weighed at weekly bag pick-up.
• Change in Body mass index (kg/m^2) [ Time Frame: Baseline, at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 18 weeks and 30 weeks ]
  Recorded from EMR or calculated with height of record.

• Change in Glycosylated Hemoglobin level (percent of mmol/mol) [ Time Frame: Baseline, at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 18 weeks and 30 weeks ]
  Recorded from EMR.
• Change in Blood pressure (mmHg) [ Time Frame: Baseline, at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 18 weeks and 30 weeks ]

• Experimental: Healthy food and Education/Cooking Classes
  At consent, participant will complete the baseline survey. Baseline survey will collect information like vegetable consumption, healthy eating attitudes, and demographics. Every week for 6 weeks, participants will pick-up a healthy food bag (e.g. fresh vegetables) for a $3 co-pay and attend an hour-long education classes at East Baltimore Medical Center. All participants will complete a survey at healthy food bag pick-up or an education class. Surveys at bag pick-up will ascertain outcomes like vegetable consumption. Surveys at education classes will ascertain outcomes like healthy eating attitudes. At 6 weeks, all participants will complete a follow-up survey equivalent to the baseline survey. The follow-up survey will be completed again at 10 weeks, 18 weeks, and 30 weeks. Participants will also be weighed at each bag pick-up (participants may decline) and relevant health information like blood pressure will be obtained from the EMR from an associated office visit.
  Intervention: Behavioral: Healthy food and Education/Cooking Classes
• No Intervention: Control Group
  At consent, participant will complete the baseline survey. Baseline survey will collect information like vegetable consumption, cooking habits, food security, healthy eating attitudes, and demographics. As a control group, participants will not partake in the healthy food bag pick-ups or cooking classes therefore they will not fill out those associated surveys. After the 6 weeks of the intervention, control participants will be given the follow-up survey equivalent to the baseline survey. The follow-up survey will be completed again after 10 weeks, 18 weeks, and 30 weeks. Participants will also be weighed at each bag pick-up (participants may decline) and relevant health information like blood pressure will be obtained from the EMR from an associated office visit.
