Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program

  • For the 2022-23 school year, the following schools are taking part in the USDA's Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) grant:

    AT Allen Elementary

    Beverly Hills Elementary

    Royal Oaks Elementary

    Rocky River Elementary

    Winecoff Elementary

    WM Irvin Elementary

    Wolf Meadow Elementary

     

    The FFVP is a USDA-funded grant that provides a fresh fruit or vegetable snack to all students. Snacks are served at least three times per week through the end of May.

    The program offers an opportunity for students to try new items outside of their comfort zone, helps lay the foundation for healthy eating habits, and fills in gaps in students' nutrition.

    Statistically, students who have benefitted from this USDA grant go on to develop healthy eating habits beyond elementary school.

    We serve a wide variety of fresh snacks as well as provide nutrition educational opportunities.
