Students Katelyn Holloman, Hatim Nasser and Alicia Mendoza stand by a bike blender outside of HMS.
Homewood Middle School students recently combined exercise and salsa with blenders on bicycles.
The students researched and modified salsa recipes during their Family and Consumer Sciences class, and they were able to use the Rock the Bike blender bikes to make their creations.
A bike blender from Rock the Bike is powered by pedaling the bike and can help blend refreshments while teaching students about healthy eating and exercise.
The blenders were purchased through academic enhancement grants from the HMS PTO and Alabama Department of Public Health grants.
