Peek Into Kelly’s…Blog
With a husband and two active teenage daughters, Kelly Radi (BLEND Program Specialist and NuVal Educator), is passionate about food, nutrition and feeding her family. She is on a mission to teach folks in Central MN about NuVal. Every week she is out and about talking to communities, civic groups, schools, and Coborn’s patrons to share how NuVal helps simplify grocery shopping and promotes healthy eating.
When she’s not out in the community she’s at her desk writing her bi-weekly blog ” Peek Into Kelly’s…” Here is where she tells us more about NuVal and how she uses the system in her everyday life. So, take a peek into one of Kelly’s blogs…we know you’ll love what you read!
