H3: Health. Hope. Healing. has focused on educating the South Florida community about coping with breast cancer, illness, or simply achieving a state of well-being by working with the community healers. Now, H3 invites you to meet our local facilitator on one of the many sources of healing, straight from our farmers to the community: Cindy Hill, our local health educator on Organic Foods and vegetables.  Join H3 for a presentation that focuses and discusses concepts such as; “locavore”, * why should we eat organic? and the benefits of sustainability.

Cindy Hill is a 25 year veteran of the food and beverage industry, dedicating the last 8 years in educating the community on healthier food choices, as well as humane and sustainable practices.

*“A locavore is a person interested in eating food that is locally produced, not moved long distances to market. The locavore movement in the United States and elsewhere was spawned as interest in sustainability and eco-consciousness become more prevalent.”
