New Resource: Celebrating Seasonality

[Erica Krug]

Hello SGSO,

We are SO EXCITED to release the new Celebrating Seasonality recipe guide, which supports ECE sites of all types in their quest for quality improvement with farm to ECE. This new resource was created for providers, cooks, and anyone who buys, prepares, and serves meals and snacks for ECE sites. We would LOVE your help sharing this information out with your providers, networks, partners and others to get out the word. Please share the following text (copy and paste is fine!) through your newsletters, social media, and other media or communications to get the word out to providers.
