The Healthy Lombard Foundation invites everyone, but especially kids, to join students across the Great Lakes Region states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio, in celebrating National Farm to School Month and Food Day by crunching into locally and regionally grown apples at NOON on Thursday, October 22, 2015 (EST and CST).

"Of course, not everyone can Crunch at Noon on Food Day," said Healthy Lombard Founder Jay Wojcik. "So Healthy Lombard suggests you show your support by crunching down anytime that day and taking a 'Healthy Selfie.' " You can either send the photo to jay@healthylombard.com to have it posted on the Healthy Lombard website, that has over 1 Million hits, or post it on their Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/healthylombard

Need an apple to crunch? The Lombard Jewel/ Osco located at Roosevelt and Main has agreed to provide Apple Coupons on October 22 to show it support.

Healthy Lombard is a village-wide 501©3 Foundation created in 2009 to address the problem of childhood obesity and to promote healthy lifestyles for everyone. For additional information visit the website at www.healthylombard.com.
