The Wellness Committee recognizes how crucial eating well is to staying healthy. Countless studies show the value of increasing our vegetable and fruit intake, including increased energy and reduced risk for certain diseases and types of cancers. Set a goal for yourself to eat more vegetables and fruits – take good care of your body and you will feel the positive results!
Garden to Doorstep Organics, LLC is a local family business that delivers fresh organic fruits and veggies each week, and they have been delivering boxes to UW-Green Bay since early summer. They will have a box of fresh organic fruits and vegetables on display at the Benefits and Wellness Fair on Tuesday, October 9th, so you can see how much and what is included in a produce box. Please stop by the Wellness Committee table at the fair, and be entered in a drawing to win that free box of produce!
Here are some details:
- Each week there is a different variety of 100% organic produce
- Two types of boxes available (Fruit/Veggie Combo boxes or Fruit only boxes)
- Three sizes of each type of box available (you pick the size that best fits your family)
- Each week you will know which produce is planned for your box. You will also receive a newsletter each week with recipes using the produce in that box and tips on how to store each item. (sample newsletter)
- They work with local farmers and wholesalers to provide organic produce year round.
