About the Program: 

Our school has seen a dramatic shift over the past few years. We have become a Title one school with the number of free and reduced lunch students totaling 39.1 % of our total. Many of these kids to do not get healthy meals outside of school. Other do not get meals at all outside of school. The goal of the grant is two fold. One to allow students to take home and cook and eat the food we grow. Two to teach them how they can make smaller gardens and home and have food to eat.
