“Food Day is all about supporting “real” food that is minimally processed and contains natural ingredients,” said bakery owner, Thomas Storm. “It is what we are all about – spellable, pronounceable, natural, delicious ingredients. We are about real food that is really delicious and life enhancing!”
Between 11 a.m.-1 p.m. and 3-6 p.m. you can also talk with our partnering Health Coaches, Tom and Julie Meekins of March Forth Family LLC (www.marchforthfamily.com).
