News from the Cafeteria: Starting in February, Fulton County's Nutritional Department will be launching a new program called ,”Farm to School”. Each month, Fulton County schools will feature a fresh vegetable from the Coastal Georgia Small Farmers Cooperative. This small group of Georgia farmers has a desire to grow and deliver fresh, quality, Georgia grown produce while maintaining their small farm heritage. The CGSFC farmers grow collard greens, turnip greens, field peas, yellow squash, and Vidalia onions. This month on Thursday, February 17th, we will be featuring fresh grown collard greens.

Hi Ms. Murphy!
ReplyDeleteI liked the blog this week. It was short and sweet and had a lot of information on it! I was happy to see CRCT was moved out a few days. Will all grades be testing starting on Monday the 25th of April? Doesn't it usually start mid week and go into the next week? Just curious. I usually help organize snacks for our class that week, so I like to know when the testing begins.
Hope you enjoyed the nice weather! My kids have serious Sping Fever! :)
See you soon!
