On Curriculum Nights, September 22 and 23 come visit Haldane's Farm to School and Garden tables. Haldane is launching its Farm to School initiative with monthly “Farmers’ Choice” fresh vegetable selections in the cafeteria beginning Thursday, September 30th. The vegetables will be coming from local farms in the area and the first recipe will be provided by Fork and Glass catering company. Try a sample at our table.
Haldane Farm to School is an initiative of the Wellness committee that was created with the objective of improving student nutrition by encouraging the use of fresh, local farm produce in meals served in the cafeteria, as well as providing classroom-based nutrition and food system education. Haldane’s Garden committee has been hard at work building gardens on the school grounds. Come see the plans at our table.The gardens will be ready for planting early Spring 2011.
