📱🚶 Wellness Tip from Kentucky Farm Bureau!

Walking while talking on the phone is a simple way to add more movement to your day. Instead of sitting during a phone call, take a few laps around your office, home, or parking lot!

Vince is putting this healthy tip into action by pacing the parking lot while on the phone. Those extra steps add up! 👟

Thank you to Kentucky Farm Bureau for sharing this creative Healthy Hometown Challenge submission and encouraging us to find easy ways to move more throughout the day!
