"The children had a blast at Lowes Foods
in Wilkes yesterday! They loved the
healthy snacks, and asked our nutritionist
if she would start preparing some for
our classroom. They were very excited
by all that they learned. Our group leader
was wonderful. Thanks so much for this
experience." -Sharon Clem, Preschool Teacher

very interactive and our tour guide was
wonderful. She was so friendly and let
everyone ask as many questions as they
wanted. She did a great job of talking
about nutrition with the children." - Girl Scout Troop Leader

They told me over and over again how
