Café LA Harvest! Connecting local California produce served to students in the cafeteria with nutrition resources for students, teachers, and parents
Café LA Harvest is an initiative to include more local California produce in our school menus. This initiative helps support local economies and farmers while exposing our students to the benefits of delicious, fresh, farm-to-school fruits and vegetables. Café LA Harvest features a monthly special at lunch on Thursdays that is reinforced and includes educational resources for teachers and students that make learning and eating local produce a more exciting and enjoyable experience.
Welcome to our Farm to School Program!
This exciting initiative connects our students with fresh, locally sourced produce and educational opportunities about agriculture. Through partnerships with local farms, we bring nutritious, seasonal foods into our school cafeterias and classrooms. Our program not only supports the local economy but also fosters healthy eating habits and an appreciation for sustainable food practices. Join us in cultivating a brighter, healthier future for our children!
