Harvest of the Month
Our Harvest of the Month Program features California grown fruits and vegetable from September through July. We offer taste tests at each school to expose students to fruits and veggies they may not have tried before, or to reacquaint themselves and encourage them to continue to make healthy choices. Our school cafeterias serve the Harvest of the Month produce item for lunch on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month, and for breakfast and supper the day following. We work with food hubs to source produce that is grown locally (usually within 100 - 200 miles) so that these items are as fresh, delicious and nutritious as possible. We'll be updating this webpage to reflect the produce items we'll offer closer to the date and based on item availability from our farmers.
September - Valencia Oranges
October - Sugarbee Apples
November - Golden Beets
December - none
January - Cara Cara Oranges
February - Avocado
March - Guava
April - Gold Nugget Mandarins
May - Sweet Potatoes
