Supermarkets

Grocery stores and supermarkets are great places
to learn about eating healthfully.  Ways for market
managers to participate are to work with the Network
for a Healthy California-Retail Program’s
merchandising
and promotional activities; offer produce-focused tours, guest speakers, and fruit and vegetable donations to schools and youth groups; conduct contests for children, with nutrition and physical activity-oriented themes and prizes; and host food demos featuring kid-friendly fruit and vegetable recipes.  Grocery Stores are an ideal field trip for schools and youth organizations participating in the Network for a Healthy California—Children’s Power
Play!
