Haldane Farm to School: Great Start to a New Year!

We had a great farm to school week at Haldane Elementary School! 


On Monday Chef Nick taught the 3rd graders how to make a classic tomato sauce with fresh basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, and tomatoes. All from Haldane's own garden! It was a unanimous thumbs up!















The same day, Mrs. Scrocca's 2nd graders made kale chips from kale they picked from the school garden.

And the next day, Mrs. Cretara's kindergarteners made apple chips from apples they picked at Fishkill Farms.



We closed the week with local, organic corn on the cob and a local salad bar with greens and carrots from Glynwood Farm.


What a week!
