Welcome to the Farm to School for LCUSD Blog. We are on a quest! To bring healthy, locally grown produce to our schools. We deserve the best. Our kids deserve the best.
This is a very do-able project. We are working with the national Farm to School program, conveniently located in Eagle Rock at Occidental College.
Here's what it will do for LCUSD:
- Farm fresh, locally grown, organic produce
- Nutrition education programs for the curriculum
- Interactive opportunities for students to visit local farms, gardens and more
- School lunch participation expected to rise
- New revenue stream for local farmers is supported
- Community awareness will increase encouraging healthier eating for everyone!
We are gathering names of those interested and concerned about the health and well-being of the food we are providing in our school system. What do we want for our children? What do we want for our community?email us today: mail @ farmosafarms.org
