520	3		_aThe lack of essential nutrients has been one of the prevailing causes of nutrient deficiencies in school children. A diet that consists of vegetables and other food items that are rich in nutrients and a program that enables children to cultivate their food would strategically change their consumption towards a healthier diet. Thus, the objective of this study was to improve the indigenous vegetables consumption of grade V pupils. The intervention included vegetable gardening and a cooking demonstration that were administered in three treatment elementary schools in Davao City. To measure the effect of the intervention, the Difference-in-differences (DID) method was used in conjunction with the pre and post survey that included information pertaining to 3-day diet recall of Grade V pupils. The results showed an overall increase in intakes of micronutrients, minerals and vitamins. Also, statistically significant DID estimates were found in enrgy, protein, and carbohydrates for macronutrients. For minerals and vitamins, the following had statistically significant DID values: P, Mg, K, Zn, Vitamin C, Thiamine, Riboflavin, Niacin, vitamin B6, and Vitamin E. the increased nutrients intake is attributable to the increased consumption of indigenous vegetables such as squash, Malabar nightshade, water spinach, tomato, and eggplant that the children cultivated and cooked. However, some indigenous vegetables were already a staple to some areas. The intervention generally improved the consumption of indigenous vegetables by school age children. Therefore, program interventions involving gardening and cooking demonstrations can enable children achieve healthier and more balanced diets.
