Designed by Food Connects, this resource inspires and guides schools in creating successful taste test programs that introduce students to fresh, locally-sourced foods.
While Harvest of the Month highlights crops selected for Vermont’s culture and climate, the ultimate goal is to encourage healthy eating and awareness of where food comes from. Inside, you’ll find tried-and-true approaches to spark openness to new foods, build excitement, and sustain student engagement over time. Success relies on cultivating a supportive community and developing a program that prioritizes consistency and sustainability.
