October - Apples

On Thursday, October 13th, our 7 schools participated in the Great Lakes Great Apple Crunch. The Great Lakes Great Apple Crunch is an event to celebrate National Farm to School month. Schools collectively purchase and crunch into locally and regionally grown apples. The event builds a strong community by educating eaters about local healthy food, promoting long-term local food purchasing, and growing relationships with local farmers.

Check out the video below about the Orchard our apples came from!
