Charter-school lunch by oma0311 on Mar 25, 2009 at 9:05 AM PDT
..it warms my heart to read articles about changing school lunch programs.Last summer I coordinated a USDA Summer Foods Program for The Salvation Army in North Portland, Oregon cooking as much food from scratch using fresh fruits and vegetables as often as possible thanks to the Oregon Food Bank’s program We Feed Kids.
The kids loved the food and we never had leftovers.
As adults we are called to bring the best to all children. How we treat children is often a barometer
of the health of a society. As a parent and grandparent my children always recieved the best I could afford and I have always tried to provide the same for the children I have cooked for in various types of other programs.
