Integrating local produce with your classroom or cafeteria is simple and easy with the Harvest of the Month program!
Each month teachers and food service directors have a simple and exciting opportunity to focus on a fruit or vegetable through lessons in the classroom, classroom recipe demonstrations, taste tests in the cafeteria, or through featured cafeteria meals or sides. Through this program students get a holistic experience of produce, that encourages them to think about when and where their food is coming from.
