We are not “only” serving fruits, vegetables, dairy, grains, proteins and other organic ingredients to children in WCCUSD each week. We are proud to also include bilingual English-Español educational materials and recipes to ensure that families know what they are eating, can prepare meals at home, and why this paradigm-shifting program is vital. They are now excited about local and organic, and hopefully you will be too! Below is a sampling of infographics to increase food literacy among all…
