End of an Era for Blue Zones Tuolumne County Project

Blue Zones Tuolumne County puts on projects and proposes policy changes that aim to expand the life expectancy and quality of life for local residents. It stems from the work of Dan Buettner who studied the world’s longest-lived populations to identify the common lifestyle, diet, and environmental factors behind exceptional longevity. He named the areas “Blue Zones.” The Tuolumne County project launched in 2021 with the plan to operate for five years. The period comes to a close at the end of this month. Recapping the project and how it will continue on in other forms were Blue Zones representatives Judy Stoltenberg and Kristi Conforti, along with Adventist Health Sonora President Greg McCulloch.
