CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwire - Jun 28, 2012) - Chicago real estate online leader Dream Town recently hosted a special event for its employees and select guests to show them the benefits and satisfaction of eating healthy, with specific focus on eating local organics when possible. The event, held June 27 at Landmark Century Cinema, included a screening of Robert Kenner's Food, Inc. and a presentation from the owners of Irv and Shelly's Fresh Picks.
Dream Town was founded 15 years ago as a brand dedicated to first time home buyers, doing business mostly online via its proprietary search engine technology. Today, they serve both buyers and sellers, operate three Chicago offices and boast the highest percentage of top producers citywide.
With 205 brokers on staff, Dream Town works to continuously provide a variety of services and resources that promote their general wellness and work-life balance. After years of offering on-site yoga classes and massage, the company decided it wanted to provide a means for eating well and chose to partner with Irv and Shelly's Fresh Picks.
"People know that eating organic local produce is good for them, but think it's too expensive," said Yuval Degani, Dream Town founder and president. "What we're offering through Irv and Shelly is a way to buy competitively-priced organics that really do taste better than anything you're going to buy at the store."
Irv & Shelly's Fresh Picks has been delivering organic local produce since 2006 and has already amassed over 1,000 clients. They source products from small farms in Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Wyoming, Iowa and Michigan, and select items from Argentina and Mexico. Their products are available online and can be purchased piecemeal or as a preselected box of seasonal items.
"Produce that's grown locally and that uses organic methods really does just taste different," offered Degani. "If we can offer our agents something that tastes incredible, that they're happy eating and that's good for them, it'll lead to changes in their lifestyle and it'll show in other areas of their life."
This mentality sets Dream Town apart amongst Chicago real estate brokerages. Degani believes that by providing his employees with resources for stress relief and general well being, they will in turn have a more positive impact on their clientele.
