Fruits are used for morning and afternoon snacks. A plant stand at the local farmers market was set up to sell the vegetables and fruits. They also donated some of the produce to the local food shelf. Plans going forward are to serve fresh vegetables and fruits in the salad bar in the school lunchroom and to have a Farmers Market at the school.[/vc_column_text][apress_button button_text=”Case Study pdf” color_scheme=”color_scheme1″ button_size=”medium” button_swing=”yes” button_google_fonts=”yes” button_text_color=”#ffffff” button_text_color_h=”#ccceb6″ button_shape=”rounded” button_link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fjeffersfoundation.org%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F04%2FCase-Study-longfellow-elementary.pdf||target:%20_blank|” button_custom_fonts=”font_family:Roboto%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C500%2C500italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Garden Video Page
