If you’re an early bird like us, it may be time to start thinking about your new year’s goals. Lucky for you, Forsyth County will launch the Wellness Produce Box Program starting Jan. 18, 2024.
The goal of the free 12-week course is to promote the health and overall well-being of participants while highlighting the importance of consuming locally-grown produce.
Here’s what participants will get:
- Hands-on cooking classes to learn how to prepare and cook recipes using local ingredients from farmers
- Bi-weekly produce boxes with locally-sourced ingredients
- Exercise and nutrition tips for well-being
Classes will be held at the Forsyth County Cooperative Extension (1450 Fairchild Rd.) Thursday evenings at 5:30 p.m. The course is limited to 25 participants. Interested? Apply online by Jan. 12, 2024. You’ll be notified if you’ve been accepted no later than Jan. 15.
