Back to School Smart Start Q&A at Fairway Market

Children will soon be grabbing their lunches and backpacks to head back to school, and Fairway has the nutritional tips, shopping strategies, and meal-planning advice to help parents easily set their kids on the right track for a healthy and successful year. Carlon Colker, MD, who has a practice in Greenwich, is also an author, television personality, renowned wellness coach, and Fairway’s very own Health and Nutrition Consultant.  He will be at the Stamford store (699 Canal Street) for a Q & A on Saturday, August 27, 2011 from 11 to noon. You can also bring your kids for arts and crafts starting at 10 am thru noon. Dr. Colker will talk about what kids should be eating, the importance of variety, and how to easily fit a range of foods into meals, as well as what choices are nutritional superstars, including how to read ingredient labels. Plus, because food and wellness go hand in hand, he’ll cover how to fit some activity into your family’s routine. In addition to answering questions from the audience, there will be product sampling. Join us for this informative and fun event!
