7 Onboard, 8 to Go for Vineland’s Corner Store Initiative

July 20, 2012

Seven Vineland corner stores and restaurants have signed on to work with NJPHK-Vineland and its partners, the Vineland Health Department and Cumberland Cape Atlantic YMCA, to provide healthy eating choices in their establishments. The initiative was prompted by the results of the Community Healthy Living Index, an environmental and community survey, which identified the one mile radius around Vineland City Hall as a food desert—an area in which affordable healthy food is not readily available.
