Food For Thought Lunch Program
Imagine your child could eat a farm to table hot lunch every day made from local, organic, non-GMO ingredients for approximately $8 – $11 per lunch. Now they can!
We offer gluten-free, vegetarian, and dairy-free options every day. We serve as much food from the school garden as possible. The children tend the school garden, harvest the food, which is brought into the kitchen, prepared, and served back to them. The veggie scraps are composted back to the school garden. What a beautiful circle of nourishment! In addition to food grown in our school garden, we also support local farms to source ingredients. Currently we partner with Seven Stars Farm, Kimberton CSA, Camphill Dairy, Lancaster Farm Fresh, Quarry Hill Farm, Meadow Hill Farm, and others. We are proud to be a GMO-free kitchen and have options for vegetarian, dairy-free, and gluten-free students.
Want to help?
The FFT program is based on parent volunteers. If you can take part in our program by volunteering a day or more, please let Ian (iwallace@kimberton.org) know. For every hour worked in the kitchen, you receive one free lunch for your child. We hope to have volunteers from 8:00am -1:00 pm.
Our after school snack bar on Wednesdays after school offers all organic, freshly baked items such as organic popcorn, cookies, homemade popsicles with apple cider made from our own apples, and more. Join us
We look forward to serving you. Thank you so much for your support!
