EATING HEALTHY ON A BUDGET
A group of RALI Board Members, DCHI Staff and dedicated community partners participated in the Blueprint For Health 10-month intensive program sponsored by the South Carolina Office of Rural Health. From this group, "Eating Healthy on a Budget" was created to provide information on how everyone can eat healthier and save money with "smart shopping".

"Eating Healthy on a Budget" is a video series comprised of four videos created to provide information on how everyone can eat healthier and save money with "smart shopping" and clean eats.
Three of our local grocery stores are featured in the videos and the fourth video is a cooking demonstration by local Chef Patty Griffey. Megan Puryear and Triza Coz provide information about My Plate, smart shopping, how to effectively read labels and ways to reduce unhealthy food consumption all while sticking to a budget . Visit our YouTube Channel to see the videos; be sure to share with family, friends and colleagues. |
More About Our Market
In 2017, we had the opportunity to test having a Pop-Up Farmers Market in Dillon County and it was well received. Since we have been hosting the Pop-Up Market every 2nd Monday, May - October.
It is our goal to have a permanent market location for our county! We are all in as it relates to community, health and unity for the long-term, not just today! We are officially members of the Farmers Market Coalition. This membership will help us to learn, grow and offer more to the community. Exciting news!
