Irv & Shelly Make Eating Healthy Easy

by Joyce Marter who runs UB's North Shore Counseling office:

As a therapist, I always remind my clients that eating healthy is an extremely important component to overall health and wellness.  As a working mother, I know that it can be challenging to find the time to buy and prepare healthy food for myself and my family.  I  became a client of Irv & Shelly's Fresh Picks about 6 months ago, and I couldn't be more pleased.  It is such a fantastic service, and I recommend it to anyone who would like to make it easier to eat healthy. 

Irv & Shelly’s Fresh Picks offers year-round home delivery in the Chicago area of local and organic produce, meat, dairy products, eggs, baked goods and more. They partner with sustainable farmers to increase the fair trade supply of local food and reach new customers in a way that protects our health and the environment. Customers order online choosing whatever items they want, including an option for one our Fresh Picks Boxes that provide an assortment of the best in season produce. Orders can be scheduled to come every week, every two weeks, or as needed. Their food comes from dozens of sustainable farms in Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan and Indiana, supplemented by organic produce from outside the region when local products are not available, and are always obtained from farms the least distance from Chicago practical.

Irv & Shelly's have provided an abundance of healthy food to people, many who did not have access to local and organic foods, with many customers exclaiming how our seasonal vegetable boxes have changed their lives by making it easier to eat a more diversified and healthy diet for themselves and their families. Irv & Shelly’s Fresh Picks does outreach and education to consumers in the Chicago area about healthy foods, food safety, recipes, affordability and other topics:
