Elementary School Apple Tastings

What better way to welcome kids back to school than with an apple tasting?! Food Front is thrilled to be visiting Chapman, Hayhurst, Maplewood, Odyssey East Sylvan and Rieke schools this year! We bring out 6 different varieties of apples for the kids to taste and find some new favorites. After the tasting, the kids vote on their favorites and bring those results back to the classroom for math and science lessons. We of course also take the opportunity to promote the co-op and invite the kids to bring their parents to our annual Harvest Festival and Apple Tasting at each of our stores which benefit Friendly House and Neighborhood House and will be held on October 9th from 11:00am-3:00pm. Thank you kids! It's such a joy to see you all learning about good local food!!
