Menus & Nutrient Information
Harvest of the Month
Beginning in October of 2023, we'll be bringing back student taste tests during morning recess or lunch recess across all school sites. This provides students an opportunity to be exposed to fruits and veggies they may not have tried before, or to reacquaint themselves and encourage them to make healthier 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 strive to ensure that these items are all California grown and are sourced as locally as possible so that they 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.
October - Asian Pears
November - Strawberries
December - None
January - TBD
February - TBD
March - TBD
April - TBD
May - TBD
