New Leaf Community Day Benefits Farm to School Program

New Leaf Community Day benefits Community Alliance with Family Farmers (CAFF)’s Farm to School program. 5% of the day’s sales will be donated to this program which addresses the complex causes of childhood obesity and helps to improve the health and economy of the local community by educating students in the classroom, bringing them to the farm, and providing access to fresh produce in the cafeteria. They provide 70 Harvest of the Month tasting kits to schools across the county and are partnering with the Ravenswood School District and Jefferson Union School Districts to increase the amount of local produce in the schools. Meet representatives during the day.
