Whole Foods 5% Giving Day to Benefit Stepping Stones on January 11th!

Whole Foods 5% Giving Day to Benefit Stepping Stones on January 11th!

On Thursday, January 11th, six area Whole Foods Markets (Danbury, Darien, Fairfield, Greenwich, Milford, and Westport) will come together to donate 5% of their net sales to support Stepping Stones’ continued work on the Norwalk Foodshed initiative, which is working to support equal access to fresh, healthy foods for all members of our community and important wellness and nutritional messaging.

Meet Heather!

Meet Heather!

For anyone looking to start 2018 off right, Heather is your girl! A Westport mom of three (including twins!) who loves skiing, sailing, and all things running, Heather started her own Food and Nutrition program, The Food Fix, which helps people with a variety of goals learn how to take control of their diet and body – for the long-term. If taking only three weeks of maternity leave with each child is any indication of her passion for her work, you might also be interested to know Heather runs marathons (mostly) for fun (she’s at 10 now!), swears by R+F lash boost and the Health App by Apple. Despite her passion for her work, she values nothing more than family time, and aims for at least three technology-free family dinners a week to keep everyone connected! This mom’s got it all together, and she’s even offering a special offer for WestportMoms interested in trying her DIY or group program; thank you Heather for helping us kick off the New Year right!
