The Beginning
Fruit Climbers Inc. is co-founded by Jermaine Anderson and LaToya Stephens. Jermaine, who’s nicknamed “Jay”, has been working in the agriculture field for almost 10 years, and LaToya has been an athlete from age 6, and competitively throughout college. The thought and intent behind Fruit Climbers was formed by passing a nearby park and noticing most of the kids were not running around, and the track and baseball fields were empty. This lead into a conversation between both Jermaine and LaToya, mentioning today’s children becoming more overweight because of eating habits and menus offered.
“We began thinking of our family, which is mostly made up of children, and we noticed that many of the kids and their friends were overweight. Also we noticed that most of the children were not only overweight but they had bad eating habits”.
Both Jermaine and LaToya feel strongly about changing society’s eating habits and teaching children the importance of living a healthier lifestyle. This website will focus on healthy recipes, exercise tips and ideas, and dietary information on fruits and vegetables.
