Nourish & Thrive: A Nutritional Wellness Workshop

August 29 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Eating well doesn’t have to be complicated, expensive, or disconnected from the foods you already know and love.

Join us for Nourish & Thrive, the final activation of the Barry Farm Summer of Wellness, led by Doula’s Kitchen.

This interactive, one-hour nutritional wellness workshop is designed to make healthy eating feel accessible, practical, culturally relevant, and achievable on a real-life budget.

Together, we’ll explore how to build balanced meals using familiar foods and flavors, stretch SNAP and WIC benefits, simplify meal planning, and make nourishing choices that work for you and your family.

During this workshop, you’ll explore:

  • 🥗 Simple ways to build balanced, nourishing meals
  • 🍎 Culturally relevant approaches to healthy eating
  • 🛒 Strategies for maximizing SNAP and WIC benefits
  • 📝 Practical meal-planning tools you can use immediately
  • 💰 Tips for feeding yourself and your family on a budget
  • ♻️ Ways to reduce food waste and make your groceries stretch further
  • 💬 Open Q&A and community conversation

And you’ll leave with take-home resources to help you continue putting what you’ve learned into practice. The workshop overview specifically includes resources around balanced meals, SNAP/WIC, meal planning and local food access.

This isn’t a lecture. It’s a gathering.

Come as you are, bring your questions, and join us for a welcoming conversation about food, wellness, access, and making healthy choices work in real life.
