NuGenesis Hosts Harvest for Your Health Fundraiser

NuGenesis farm will hold its fifth annual, family-oriented, farm-to-table fundraiser, Harvest for Your Health, from 4 to 7:30 p.m., August 23, at its community education gardens, in Oconomowoc. Area chefs, doctors and farmers will pair up to serve a wide array of gourmet pizzas and other nutrient-dense dishes in celebration of the idea that specific foods have the potential to help prevent chronic illness and promote general wellness.

The afternoon of food also includes a live band, children’s activities and art projects, a silent auction and a cash bar. All proceeds from the event benefit the educational youth efforts of NuGenesis.

NuGenesis was founded in 2010 by three-time cancer survivor Kathy Bero, with a mission to teach people how to grow, cook and understand the health benefits of specific foods.

Cost: $75 adults; $5 youth; $100 for a family pass for two parents or guardians and up to three children. Location: N68 W33208 CR K, Oconomowoc. For more information, call 1-800-969-3588, ext. 1 or visit NuGenesisFarm.org.
