About Us
Mission: 

To provide school communities with the tools, training, resources and funding that enables them to create healthier food and redefine lunchroom environments.

  • Project Produce: A grant program that helps schools increase kids' access to fresh fruits and veggies while providing nutrition education through lunchroom learning activities.

  • Salad Bars to Schools (SB2S): A grant program that helps schools expand their commitment to serving fresh fruits and vegetables by implementing salad bars as part of their daily meal program.

  • School Food Institute: Online courses that give school food service professionals and childhood nutrition advocates the in-depth training, operational skills and strategic vision necessary to make school food fresh, healthy, and sustainable. 

  • The Lunch Box: An online resource that provides free step-by-step guides, tools and recipes to help schools improve their food programs and transition to scratch-cooking.
