“Rawgust”: Health, Wellness & More!

August is gaining a whole new meaning in terms of health so we will be focusing on it as “rawgust”: health, wellness & more. 

The city of Casper, and downtown Casper specifically, has many different options for being active and for eating whole, delicious foods that come from our local growers and creators! Not only this, we have many health-based stores for purchasing food, vitamins, and supplements that are great for the body. As summer is coming to an end, we do not want to take the focus away from treating our bodies best, and if you follow along, we will give you some insights into how you can do this in your favorite parts of town!

Summer Markets at David Street Station

David Street Station –  with its spacious auditorium, splash pad, and areas for taking a nice summer stroll – along with the WCDA have and are holding summer markets every other Tuesday until August 23! These markets have live music, beers on tap from varied breweries, food on the go from your favorite food trucks, and finally VENDORS! The vendors setting up at this spot focus on homemade and/or home-grown products. You can find anything from freshly baked banana nut bread, some spicy mango salsa, and even organic bath soap!

The vendors, along with the individuals setting up and running the markets, have put in a ton of work to serve the community of Casper. The markets have been fun and successful but these business owners could not do this without you. Please join us again, this Tuesday, for a wonderful evening with friends, family, or even solo! You will not want to miss this.

Holistic Health: Alpenglow Apothecary

If you’re looking for a more permanent location for your health needs, head on down to Alpenglow Apothecary in downtown Casper as well. This store has holistic health products, vitamins, medicinal and culinary herbs, and even other health and wellness-related items from local business owners, for sale. The staff is incredibly friendly, so if you’re ever not sure what exactly you need, they have the knowledge and expertise to guide you to what you may (or may not) be browsing for! It will be nearly impossible for you to not find something that works for your lifestyle.

If you’re newer to their business, it is important to note the AMAZING deals you’ll find here at Alpenglow Apothecary. Every Thursday and Saturday, this local business has a 20% off sale of everything you will find in store. Yes, we said everything! Not to mention they also sell 100% pure Kratom, as well as CBD products.

So, if you happen to have this Tuesday evening free, or even a quick hour after your busy day, be sure to stop by the summer market at David Street Station, and then head down a block or two to the Alpenglow Apothecary to top off all of your health-related needs and wants!
