The Ins and Outs of School Nutrition & Farm to School

  • Wednesday, November 6, 2019, 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Over 4.9 billion lunches are served to 29.8 million students in the United States each year. We know school meals are an important educational and health support that can help alleviate hunger and improve academic performance. But what are our students in New York State eating and where does this food come from? 

Stephanie Hsu from Farm to Institution NYS will present on the basics of school meal requirements, procurement and menu planning strategies, and current farm to school trends in our state.  

This event is co-hosted by Eat Well Kingston and the Hudson Valley Farm Hub.  Please RSVP your attendance to kms369@cornell.edu.
