WINDHAM, Conn. — Azuluna, a Connecticut-based team of farmers, chefs and nutritionists, has launched a healthy meal delivery service, focused on serving New England with fresh, farm-to-table meals.

“We want to give New Englanders access to farm-to-table cuisine that makes it easy to eat in a totally healthy, nutritious way,” said farmer and Azuluna co-founder Ken Rapoport. “Azuluna aims to positively impact people’s health and New England communities by providing great-tasting nutritious meals, sourced from regional farmers, who grow food responsibly.”

“Azuluna strives to provide the convenience of prepared meals while helping reverse the increased incidence of chronic disease occurring as a result of overly processed food intake,” said Geri Brewster, Registered Dietitian and Azuluna Board Member.

“Our team of culinary professionals, supported by trained nutritional experts, use innovative cooking techniques like steaming, simmering, braising and roasting to keep meals healthy and low in calories without sacrificing flavor,” added LaPorte, a graduate cum laude from the College of Culinary Arts at Johnson and Wales University who has trained with chefs around the world.

Meals are produced from seasonally selected produce and sustainably raised meats, shipped on Mondays and delivered nationwide within 2 days.  The Azuluna team of culinary, agricultural and nutrition specialists works together to craft healthy meals that combine lean protein, healthy fats, and slow acting carbohydrates with flavorful herbs and spices to enhance the body’s natural ability towards health and functioning at its best.
