Austin ISD is taking an important leadership role in the school garden movement by partnering with students, community members, teachers and administrators to launch a Garden to Café program. The program extends the lessons learned in the garden to the school cafeteria.
“Garden to Café is about serving healthy, fresh garden grown foods to students through school meal programs,” said Food Services Director Anneliese Tanner. “And ensuring the safety of the food supply is critical to student health.”
