December in Wayland
Thinking about December leaves me with mixed feelings. The mark of another year passed, the anticipation of what is yet to come. One of the things I promised myself last December was that instead of looking too far ahead or too deeply into the past, I would work harder to appreciate exactly where I 
am now. And where I am is right here, at Whole Foods Market in Wayland – and I couldn’t be more excited about what we’ve got in store this month!
I’m full of holiday cheer thinking about the sampling we’ll be offering each week to our customers. Each Thursday we’ve got a theme – buying local for the holidays, Hanukkah menu tastings, winter holiday menu tastings, and my favorite: the Fuji apple sampling event. I love it so much because for every pound of organic Fuji apples we sell a donation will go to the No Kid Hungry Campaign(TM). Through the No Kid Hungry Campaign, Share Our Strength funds the most effective local anti-hunger groups throughout the state of Massachusetts. Your purchase of these apples will help their efforts to support groups like East Boston YMCA, Project Bread, and Cooking Matters ™ (an organization close to my heart, see here).
And speaking of Project Bread, we’ll be collecting donations for this awesome organization at our registers – so you’ve got a chance to donate each time you shop! We’re also selling Project Bread holiday cards in our Whole Body department and the designs this year are gorgeous.
While you shop on December 3rd, be sure to have your kids stop over at our demo area where Beehive ART will be on hand hosting a free kids craft activity and our Demo Specialist, Chuck, will be serving up some healthy (and tasty!) snacks.
