Orwigsburg—On Wednesday, August 18, Healthy Habits Natural Market in Orwigsburg will be hosting a program on packing healthy school lunches. The program begins at 7 pm, and admission is free. Seating is limited, so anyone interested in attending should call Healthy Habits at 570-366-2620.

Melissa Hoffer, a Culinary Arts Instructor at Schuylkill Technology Centers has been teaching for 12 years. She has a wide scope of training ranging from fine dining and food safety to body image and self esteem.

Hoffer believes that time is a major factor to consider when packing healthy lunches. “Most people only have a short time to get ready in the morning,” said Hoffer. “Spending hours cooking a healthy meal simply isn’t an option.” During her presentation, she will share ways to save time without sacrificing the quality of the food.

Beth Fligge, Program Coordinator at Healthy Habits thinks everyone can benefit from Hoffer’s program. “Even if you don’t have children, packing yourself a quick healthy lunch for work wouldn’t hurt,” she said. “Plus, we’re always looking for ways to make it easier for our customers to be healthy.”

Healthy Habits Natural Market is a locally owned, independent health food and products store. The store carries local goods, as well as other natural and organic products, and hosts free educational programs for the public.
