Can you help me understand something in the following paragraph?

“In four of Nashville’s low income, urban neighborhoods the Veggie Project recruits 8 to 12 year olds. It tries to initiate a long lasting courtship between them and produce. Kids love the farmers markets because they get to be in charge. Project organizers purchase the fruit and vegetables in bulk from local farmers, then the bagging and selling are all left to young hands.”

1- “produce” is a general term for farm raised goods. In this case, it means vegetables. So the program tries to show children how good vegetables are for them.

2- “to be in charge” simply means the children can control what is happening in the situation, in this case, the children can handle and sell the vegetables at the farmer’s market
