Hy-Vee’s Healthy You Wellness Tour to stop in Grand Island

GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (Press Release) - In partnership with Old El Paso, a popular brand of Tex-Mex style foods, Hy-Vee announces today the launch of the Hy-Vee Healthy You Wellness Tour, which will travel across the Midwest promoting healthy eating habits and nutrition now through October.

The Healthy You Wellness Tour will make its way through Grand Island on Thursday, October 26th from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Project Connect / Nebraska Total Care event that takes place at Pinnacle Bank Expo at Fonner Park - 700 E Stolly Park Road.

The tour is part of Hy-Vee’s commitment to fighting food insecurity. At the 2022 White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health, Hy-Vee made a commitment to educate 100,000 Americans in low food access areas, as well as provide 30 million meals to vulnerable communities by 2025. The Hy-Vee Healthy You Wellness Tour is an extension of that commitment.

Families attending a Hy-Vee Healthy You Wellness event will receive a meal kit from Old El Paso, that includes flour tortillas, refried beans and 25 percent less sodium seasonings. Families can also take home “Plus It Up” nutritional resources that provide simple tips to adding more nutritious foods to everyday meals, dietitian-recommended products, budget-friendly meal guides and freezer meal workshops.
