Healthy Together Friends was co-founded by Jane Thayer and Joni Bell of Berrien Springs, Michigan. In 2016 Jane received a gift of $100 from a friend. She decided to use the money by passing the blessing on and held one cooking demonstration in her kitchen. With the money remaining from the gift, she and friend Joni rented a community center and invited their neighbors to view the documentary Forks Over Knives. Out of that event grew a weekly book discussion group that met around Jane’s dining room table. In 2017 Jane and Joni started a new discussion group in the Lincoln Township Public Library. In 2018 and onward their purpose remains the same–to show people the power of a whole food, plant-based diet and to help them make the transition to better health. (L to R: Joni and Jane)
