Emma Saal, from the Lockyer Valley, with sons Alexander 4, and William, 2 … exploring a healthy lifestyle at the expo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

October 23, 2013<\/strong><\/p>\n

Too often a free breakfast in Kingaroy means a sausage sizzle … but at the South Burnett Health & Lifestyle Expo it meant fruit. And lots of it … apples, mandarins and bananas.<\/p>\n

The South Burnett Regional Council, Healthy Communities and RHealth jointly hosted the free expo on Saturday morning at the Kingaroy Town Hall.<\/p>\n

There were displays of everything from ear candling to Body Step. And fruit. Every stall seemed to have a basket at hand and visitors were invited to help themselves.<\/p>\n

Stalls lined the Forecourt area and continued inside in the hall, where there were also live demonstrations.<\/p>\n

More than 20 health, nutrition, fitness, outdoor lifestyle, sporting and medical service providers had displays.<\/p>\n

Brian Jarvis, from Growing the Burnett, delivered a talk on the project, which is taking shape at Memerambi; and Jason Ford, from Ford On Food, put on a healthy fast food cooking demonstration.<\/p>\n

Maria Edubas, from Carers Australia (Qld), also used the event as an opportunity to hand out regional Carers Awards:<\/strong><\/p>\n
