HealthierU is participating in the 2025 Mayor's Local Food Challenge by teaming up with Robinette Farms. 

HealthierU is also serving as a produce subscription box pick-up location. The goal for this challenge is to not only reach the highest level of commitment (the Platinum Level) but to also create more opportunity for university employees to access fresh, local produce over the next 18 weeks. 

Robinette Farms is a local family farm growing certified organic microgreens and salad greens and raising 100% grass-fed beef. They have partnered with over 30 local producers to help the community have better access to fresh, locally grown and raised foods through their local food subscription program.

Beginning July 17, the HealthierU office, located in the University Health Center on City Campus, will serve as a new pick-up location for the Robinette Farm Subscription boxes.
