Suzanne Rowley has always had that entrepreneurial spirit and her latest venture could prove to be one of her finest ideas to date. The Wheat City Juice Co uses all natural and organic fruits and vegetables sourced from local approved farmers whenever possible.  All waste is composted and put back into the earth.  Orders can be placed on her website.   Once you have selected what you would like to order, the item is then made to order specifically for you. Select a date/time you would like your order to arrive and your product(s) will be dropped off at your home/business at no additional charge.  Their juice is packaged in mason jars which makes it 100% recyclable. Some of the options include Tropical Bliss which consists of pineapple, apple, mint, and coconut water or Very Berry, a combination of strawberry, pineapple, blueberry, apple & lemon. The Cleanse Menu is also available from a one day to a 5 day cleanse.   In addition to weight loss you may see additional benefits like better skin, hair and nails. Currently only available at Tour Indoor Cycling on 6th street, Suzanne is open to having her products at new retail locations in Brandon.  You can contact Suzanne at 573-0442, or email: WHEATCITYJUICECO@HOTMAIL.COM.

The contract expires tonight at midnight, March 17, 2018, but will continue in force and effect until the ratification vote.
