Clubs slated to begin this month!









Please see October’s FFVP calendar and nutrition nibbles to share with your students. I hope we began the year with everyone enjoying the wide variety of produce for September. Going forward we serve snack items Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdays most weeks. With the exception of a Monday holiday, in that case we will serve Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays. If any questions, please contact me at the below email address.
