The Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) has recognized North East ISD with the Best of the Bunch Award in its first annual Summer Farm Fresh Challenge. The Summer Farm Fresh Challenge encourages school nutrition teams to incorporate more Texas products into meals and teach children about healthy lifestyles and Texas agriculture.
“NEISD is honored to receive this award and we will continue to serve locally sourced products as often as possible on our menus throughout the school year,” said Sharon Glosson, Executive Director of School Nutrition Services.
The challenge also serves up economic benefits for the entire community. For every one dollar spent on local products, $2.16 is generated in our community.
