Food For Thought

"When the lunch period is recognized as part of the learning day, new opportunities and responsibilities emerge for students, food services and the district as a whole. The lunch period is a window for critical learning and modeling of attitudes toward food. This can be linked to the classroom curriculum, experiences in the school garden and kitchen classroom, and visits to local farms. In an integrated farm-to-school approach, the lunch period and the lunch itself become teaching and learning opportunities in the daily life of the entire learning community." ~ Janet Brown, program officer for food systems, Center for Ecoliteracy
