We at InDependent understand firsthand the barriers that many military families face in trying to access healthy living, and that’s why we’re such big fans of Thrive Market.
Thrive is an online shopping club offering healthy foods and wholesome products at huge discounts. Their prices are typically 25-50% lower than retail, AND they ship directly to your door. That means for the first time, organic, healthy foods cost the same as heavily processed, conventional alternatives no matter where you are stationed.
