Marsh Supermarkets have been on a mission to shift the focus toward outstanding health. It’s true. More than any other grocer, we have made a commitment to you and your health. By creating our three combined programs, Easy to Eat Well, Guiding Stars, and Project 18, Marsh is making it easier for you to be healthy.

We’re going to continue to talk about these programs, but we wanted to give you a quick overview on each and what to look for in our aisles. They are part of our Healthy Aisle program, where we make it easy for you to eat well.

Guiding Stars is a rating system based on what foods have the best nutrients for the calories. Foods are rated with one, two, or three stars.

Our “Easy to Eat Well” program, developed in accordance with FDA guidelines, also provides easy-to-understand nutritional information for shoppers. Look for these different symbols next to your food items and discover if they meet your dietary and lifestyle needs. Then decide if they’re right for you. The programs’ straightforward symbols are easy for kids to recognize too, so get them involved early and watch them grow up strong and healthy.

Project 18 is a statewide program with Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at St.Vincent designed to help kids in Indiana schools set goals, eat smarter and get active. Look for the “Project 18 Approved” symbol next to a food item. It means the food item is healthy, kid-friendly and a win-win for you and your kids.

We’re proud to offer you these programs and look forward to seeing you and your family in our aisles!
