Join Slow Food USA and Whole Kids Foundation, with the support of United Health Foundation, as we launch a new resource to help you establish a Garden to Cafeteria program in your district.
Garden to Cafeteria Toolkit Webinar
May 18 at 4 pm ET/3 pm CT/2 pm MT/ 1 pm PT
- Does your district have a robust school garden program?
- Does your Food Service department participate in Farm to School procurement?
- Would your students like to see fresh produce from the school garden served on the salad bars in your school?
Slow Food USA has assembled a Garden to Cafeteria (GTC) toolkit to assist a school district in developing the necessary food safety protocols, training workshops, and partnerships to launch their own GTC program. The toolkit is based on successful implantations of GTC programs in Denver, San Diego, Chicago, and Austin. The webinar will present the toolkit and announce a pilot program to involve 3 school districts to test the toolkit with in-person support from Slow Food USA.
Hosted by: Andrew Nowak, Slow Food USA, and Tristana Pirkl, Whole Kids Foundation
