About the Program:
Our school does not have a kitchen so any bought lunches are catered from outside school. This includes our free and reduced lunches. Because food is not cooked on-site there are rarely fresh vegetables with the lunches. Many children also do not have fresh produce in their snacks or lunches from home. We would like to provide students with fresh vegetables with their snacks or lunches. This grant would let us fix up the existing gardens and buy seeds and plants to grow and feed to the kids.
