Our DC Public Schools summer students are learning about new kitchen and garden tools - and how to use them safely. They used graters to grate apples, beets, and carrots for ABC Salad. Many are trying and liking this new food! 🍎🥕 #FoodEducation freshfarm.org/recipes/abc-sa…



"I want to be just like you!" "I wish we could come here everyday.” On our field trip to DC Central Kitchen, FoodPrints summer students joined the team as chefs to prepare meals and help their communities. They came away dreaming big about their futures! 🍲 freshfarm.org/blog/foodprint…




Thrilled to be featured Allison Aubrey on how our FRESHFARM FoodPrints program weaves food & cooking into the curriculum. Against the backdrop of high rates of diet-related disease, "an investment in nutrition education makes sense." USDANutrition n.pr/3PMZ7tt

Thank you Allison Aubrey for highlighting how every day in FoodPrints classes, our students grow, harvest, cook, and eat local food in our school gardens and kitchen classrooms! #GrowCookEatLearn DC Public Schools Phil Mendelson Muriel Bowser
