On April 26th, Whole Foods Market customers from Boca Raton and Wellington helped raise over $10,800 for the District's environmental educational event, the Palm Beach County Envirothon. Whole Foods donated 5% of their net sales from both stores, which will go directly to support the event for 2012. For more information check out the link on Facebook
