Summary

The goal of this research study is to learn if an 8-week produce prescription program (in partnership with a local urban farm) can increase fruit and vegetable consumption in overweight teens and improve their blood pressure and weight. The main questions are:

* Is a produce prescription program in overweight teens feasible?
* Will a produce prescription with educational videos increase weekly fruit and vegetable intake?
* Will a produce prescription with educational videos improve blood pressure and weight for height?

Researchers will compare the teens' fruit and vegetable intake, blood pressure and weight for height before and after the produce prescription. Researchers will also see how feasible it is by measuring the number of produce prescriptions are picked up by the families and how many educational videos are viewed.

Participants will:

* complete questionnaires related to their diet and nutrition
* measure their blood pressure and weight at the beginning and end of the study
* obtain weekly produce prescriptions
