Move Well |

Move Well Waukesha County addresses the community's fitness needs by providing free physical activities for Waukesha County residents, including community Wellness Walks, a Fit in the Park series, and a Winter Wellness series. Events will take place in parks and municipal facilities in Brookfield, Menomonee Falls, Mukwonago, Muskego, New Berlin, Oconomowoc, and Waukesha. We are continually working to expand our offerings. |

Eat Well |
|
Eating a diet rich in vegetables and fruits as part of an overall healthy diet may reduce risk for heart disease, reduce your risk of certain types of cancer, and prevent type 2 diabetes in adults. Vegetables and fruits provide nutrients vital for health and maintenance of your body. Most adults live a busy lifestyle and find it hard to get the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables per day. The goal of this initiative is to introduce you to healthy produce options and give you some recipes to make it easy to incorporate this produce at home! | |
