Food As Medicine – Join a Group!

Rates of chronic disease are rising rapidly, and traditional one-on-one medical appointments and pharmaceuticals often do not treat the root causes.  In our “Food as Medicine” group setting, patients gain skills, support, and confidence to manage their conditions amongst clinic staff and other patients who are living with the same disease.  The free produce from Yolo Food Bank and FARM Davis incentives participation and enables patients to practice the lifestyle changes discussed at the group visits.
