Farm-to-table: “Apple Crunch Day” Celebrates the Benefits of Locally Grown Produce

Jordan School District has partnered with Pyne Farms in Orem to purchase 400 cases of apples to celebrate this year’s “Apple Crunch Day” on October 19th. The event is an excellent opportunity for the District to increase our students’ exposure to locally-grown produce in Utah and encourage healthy eating habits.

As part of the promotion, Jordan School District Nutrition Services Department will provide students with activity pages, nutrition facts, and a video on the farm-to-table experience of the apples they will be enjoying.

Thank you to the wonderful Nutrition Services staff for making this day possible and helping educate students on the benefits of fresh fruits and vegetables.
