ShareKitchen will be participating in the Humana Healthy Fun Fair and Well Being Walk this weekend. The event will be held at the La Quinta Community Park on Saturday, January 11th from 9am-1pm. Participants in the Well Being Walk will start a 5.75 mile course at 7am at the Park and cross the finish line at the Healthy Fun Fair entrance.
The Healthy Fun Fair will feature live music and an assortment of interactive play spaces for children of all ages. The Humana Healthy Fun Fair occurs as part of the Humana Challenge Golf Tournament that runs from January 13th-19th. Humana is a health care company whose mission is to help people achieve life-long well-being. The weekend’s festivities and golf tournament are done in collaboration with The Clinton Foundation’s Health Matters Initiative.
The Clinton Health Matters Initiative works at improving the health and well-being of all people by activating communities in making meaningful contributions to the health of others. The goals of the Clinton Initiative are to reduce preventable health outcomes, close health inequity and reduce health care costs by improving access to key contributors to health for all people.
At the Fair, ShareKitchen will be sponsoring a Planting Station where fair attendees and children can plant, grow and take home their own food seedlings. These plantings not only educated people on how to plant and grow food but they also represent the process by which ShareKitchen is helping our community understand “Where Food Come From”.
ShareKitchen was founded on the simple principle of sharing and helping local people turn their recipes and dreams into local products and sustainable food-focused businesses.
