These meal packages are available to the public and can be purchased here.There are various types of boxes featuring different items, so there's bound to be something for everyone.

With the launch of this new program, Lowlands has decided to donate 1,000 of the Snackuterie™ Boxes to healthcare workers free of charge. Lowlands said the full value of the donation is $35,000.

These healthcare workers will also receive access to viewing a virtual holiday performance from UPAF.
