WSDA Farm to School and the Washington School Nutrition Association (WSNA) partner to sponsor Taste Washington Day, an annual celebration of Washington grown foods served in school meals during the fall harvest season. Schools connect with local farms to make the most of our bountiful fall harvest, and use Taste Washington Day to kick-off “Farm to School Month” (October). Also see WSNA's Summer 2016 Apple Press (page 20) for an update with featured recipes and more!
Participating schools around the state engage in all sorts of ways including:
Serving a locally-sourced meal
Providing education and activities to recognize the region's agricultural bounty
Inviting farmers to lunch
Arranging school visits to area farms
Connecting Future Farmers of America high school students with elementary students
