"Food is grown and sold to be profitable, not to be delicious and healthy. If you accept that, you're asking for trouble. Health trouble, economic trouble, environmental trouble." - Mark Bittman
It is the duty of public schools to nourish all children and secure a prosperous future. Food is the most vital resource for human growth and development, yet our schools are serving up unappetizing, low-quality foods to our children.
We want:
-
Kid friendly fresh food over processed food
-
Creativity and affordability
-
Locally sourced ingredients whenever possible
-
Enough food to nourish growing bodies and minds
-
Cafeteria chefs
-
Excess food packaged for to-go meals for students in need
