Are you a patient of Finger Lakes Community Health in Bath or Penn Yan?

If so, join us for the SNAP-Ed New York Fruit and Vegetable Prescription (FVRx) program and start off your summer with FREE fresh fruits and vegetables (up to $120 worth!)

The SNAP-Ed New York FVRx program is a 6-week long healthy eating program that meets weekly for online classes in a group setting. After attending each session, participants receive $20 in vouchers which can be used at local approved retailers to buy fresh fruits and vegetables. Topics covered during the classes include making small shifts for healthier choices, tips for food shopping and menu planning to save money, and weekly food demonstrations using seasonal, low-cost recipes.

Our next session of the FVRx program begins the week of June 7, 2021 – But there’s still time to register!
