Shop Smart: Grocery Store Tours

Grocery store tours are free educational workshops held at local grocery stores. You can expect to spend about 45 minutes learning how to shop and save, how to read a food label, how to make healthier choices, and other tips and tricks. Spots are limited in each class to minimize a crowd. You will not actually be shopping at this time, so you will not be bringing a cart. This event is FREE, but you MUST fill out this registration form: https://forms.gle/dgLHSmMhHqF2gyZM6. Once you fill out the form, you will receive an email a few days before the class confirming the meeting location. If you have any questions, you can email Carlee at clarue@whitleygov.com.
This event is organized by the Whitley County Health Department.
