Nutrition and Health Associates/Rock County WIC

In my daily reads and encounters of all sorts of media, I’m frequently running into topics of this nature. Furthermore,  at NHA, it’s something we’re thinking about on a consistent basis, “How can we encourage more fruit and vegetable consumption? and, “How can we help my clients make that fruit and vegetable dollar, stretch?!”

We talk a lot about getting more bang for your buck. Using and consuming the most nutrient-dense foods, without breaking the bank. With the price of produce increasing, and the sketchy seasonal availability, this can be a challenge. We know that those colorful, healthy foods provide key nutrients and are good for us, but how can we afford them!?

The link about gives some great tips to make our food dollars stretch. If you have any to add, feel free to post in the comments! This topic is sure to be one we plan to revisit on a frequent basis.
