Health@university

"Last year, Tenekjian signed up for the Duke Mobile Farmers Market, an initiative through Live For Life, Duke’s employee health program. Every week, she picked up her share from WeatherHand Farm at the Sarah P. Duke Gardens. Over the fall and winter, Tenekjian signed up with Coon Rock Farm – the only farm that offered produce during colder months. The farm, outside Hillsborough, is run by Richard Holcomb and his family." (Thanks D.)

On Duke University's health food program. I feel so frustrated that the American University of Beirut (AUB) has been running such a program outside its doors for many years (www.healthybasket.org), through an AUB owned venture, and that it is minimally used by AUB.
