Weekend of Wellness

Weekend of Wellness Fairfield, OH

This show crosses many different boundaries and makes some new and exciting connections. Food is a huge part, of course, because we’re Jungle Jim’s. There will be samples galore. We’ve also invited guest speakers to wow you with information about all sorts of healthy topics. Stop by booths of products for specialized diets, supplements, and organic foods. New this year will be healthy pet products, because there is a world of healthy options for our furry friends and Jungle’s selection is tops.

Do right by your body, come and learn what the Jungle has to offer in the latest of all the wellness foods and lifestyle trends. It’s an Adventure in Health at the 2013 Weekend of Wellness.

Super Foods

What’s so super? We’ll show you. Super foods are the best of the best. These are the foods that have been bolstering human health for ages. Some are sourced from the most remote corners of the earth, while some are so common that they can be found in almost any kitchen. We’ll expose them and share our bounty with you. You’ll come away with a new understanding of your surroundings and a new sense of natural empowerment.

Supplements

The newbie on the health block, but none the less potent, supplements blend our advances in science with our connection to the natural world. They break down barriers of understanding and allow us to accurately adjust our nutritional balance in the service of our health goals. Our Herb ‘N Jungle department is the most powerful piece of real estate in our store. Come speak with the companies that produce these products and see how their latest discoveries can benefit you.

Specialty Diets

It’s a fact of life, that humans are still learning about the impact of certain foods on our bodies; some by choice, others by necessity. Knowledge and selection of products can greatly improve the quality of life for someone in need of a specialized diet. Jungle Jim’s has the largest selection of products available for those seeking gluten free, low sodium, sugar free, & nut free items. Variety is the spice of life and at Jungle Jim’s a restricted diet does not have to be torturous on your taste buds. Come and sample all the options, meet the vendors, try a new flavor and take your specialized diet to a new horizon.

Organic

It’s gone from hippie to the highway! The desire for organic products has spread across the country and grows each year. We’re not talking just in fruits and vegetables, but in all types of items. Jungle Jim’s has seen the entire movement from its start and we’ve been providing for our customers’ needs ever since. Now, more than ever, people want a handle on what they’re consuming and the push for organic labeling helps redefine our understanding of what goes into the products on our shelves.

Natural Cleaners

Your home is an environment, just like the outside world. Why pollute it with chemicals that also end up in landfills and water ways? Keep your home your sanctuary. Transitioning the items that you use in your home to natural household products can affect the environment around you. Receive samples from some of the best names in natural household cleaning for you to try at home. Many of these are sustainable as well as simple and still get the job done, maybe even better? You’ll receive coupons to try for later.

Raw Foods

Straight no chaser, that’s raw foods! Super nutrient packed and full of fiber, your body will love you for choosing raw. They’re cleansing and detoxifying and they’re probably already in your refrigerator. It’s a win-win and a necessity of any balanced body. Plus you save the time and energy of cooking. Raw can even mean fermented and pickled items as well. A little good bacterium never hurt anyone, in fact, you can’t live without it. Come and crunch down on some great raw food options that we sell day to day.

Healthy Pets

Bark, bark, meow, meow. That means, I want to be healthy too. This show will help you better understand the world of pet health from the companies that speak their language. Learn why these companies shine above the rest by offering products that resemble the natural eating habits of our pets. Good pet foods are 100% digestible, packed with quality ingredients, essential vitamins, minerals, and protein and provide proper nutrition. So unleash your pet's diet and learn from the pros in a fun and educational format.

Jason is the Organic Produce buyer at Jungle Jim’s. We talked him into sharing some of his knowledge with you all by speaking at the show. He’s not used to being away from his beloved fruits and vegetables for long, but he has a lot of information to share and he heeded our call to educate with no hesitation. He’s got too many topics to cover, but he’ll try to get through them, and he’s open to any questions that you might have about any of our organic fruit and veggies. At Jungle Jim’s you know that he has seen it all and can share about his experiences on how to benefit from the selection and quality of the products that he has been bringing in for our customers for years.
