At our Food Creates Community events we always try to incorporate up to date articles concerning food thought. A few months ago we discussed an article concerning School lunches. As a teacher, I spend much time thinking, hoping, and discussing changes within the school lunch system. When I saw today's NY Times food page I knew you all would want to see the greatness of the lunch program within this Queens school.

The USDA recently announced an initiative to help connect school kids with their food sources and provide $50 million for lunch programs to buy local food. Probably won't make a huge impact, but it's an encouraging step in the right direction! http://www.usda.gov/wps/portal/!ut/p/_s.7_0_A/7_0_1OB?contentidonly=true&contentid=2009/09/0441.xml
