Live Well, Eat Well Menu Labeling Launch
Blooming Grounds is kicking off the Live Well, Eat Well menu labeling initiative on Saturday, May 14th and Sunday, May 15th. Stop in at either location during the kick off and receive $1 off all Live Well, Eat Well options.
Live Well, Eat Well is a Winona Health and Live Well Winona wellness initiative in collaboration with area restaurants. The program was developed to help you easily identify healthier menu choices when dining out.
You deserve to know what you're eating, so we list our ingredients and nutritional information. That means you can make informed decisions about what you eat. You'll find that you can enjoy delicious food, satisfying portions and good nutrition-all at the same time, so making healthy choices will become second nature.
Partial funding for this initiative was provided by The Minnesota Department of Health's (MDH) Statewide Health Improvement Program (SHIP).
