“All our students have been busy with farm-to-school activities. The K’s visited Wellwood Orchard to learn about apples and are now drying and cooking with them. Our 7th graders made salsa out of tomatoes that they helped grow in our garden and then sold the salsa at our open house. We have all taste tested apples and broccoli this past month and got a crate of apples from Wellwood and potatoes from Cedar Mountain Farm to use for snacks and in the kitchen. Morning advisories have been helping peel the apples and potatoes to prepare for our school lunches.” – Kelly Meechum – Hartland Elementary School, Hartland, VT
