Summer is right around the corner and schedules are beginning to fill up fast. Between sporting events, graduations, summer camps, and weekend travel plans, there is a lot to keep up with! Keep eating habits on track with our essentials for building travel snack packs and care packages.
Travel Bugs
If your BFF or partner has an upcoming trip, surprise them by packing a few of their favorite snacks from home. Forget airport food! Throw together a travel pack of snack pack almond flour sea salt crackers, vegetable sticks with a handful of nuts or a sweet yet energizing treat like these healthy cookie energy bars.
Play Ball!
Whether it’s tee ball, tennis, baseball or soccer practice, warmer weather brings outdoor sports. If you’re running from after school activities with very little time in between, healthy snacks are more important than ever. Be sure to include some fresh vegetables with a filling fat like these nut butter snack packs, fine ground sea salt almond flour cracker snack packs,a water bottle and sunblock.
Recent Grads

Happy Campers
