Workshop: Navigating the Grocery Store

Do you know you need to eat healthier but are overwhelmed by the number of choices in today's average supermarket?  With over 10,000 food products at your typical grocery store, join the club!  This hands-on, interactive tour will certainly come in handy at your next grocery store visit, showing you which aisles to steer away from and which ones to spend more time in. Hint: It's best to spend the most time in the perimeter of the store! This workshop goes hand-in-hand with the Decoding Nutrition Labels workshop on June 9, so we hope you can make this workshop too. Teachers: Jeremiah Lowery is the programs coordinator at Common Good City Farm. He is also a food justice and anti-hunger activist in Washington, D.C area.
