Food Lab: A small school where the kids scratch-cook their own meals
Often times we highlight very large school districts that has a meal program that offers food that is made from scratch whenever possible. Because those places are large districts with many resources, there might be more opportunities to get local, fresh food into the cafeteria. But what about a very small, rural school? How can they do the same thing with limited resources? Join us as we interview Emilia Miguel with "Food Lab," from Pacific Elementary in Davenport, CA. It's a school where the Students are the chefs, and create their own local, nutritious meals for the National School Lunch Program. Oh, and families move their kids to the school just for the meals.. there's a long waiting list.
