Woodfin
Woodfin Elementary gets food grant
Students at 106 North Caro-
lina elementary schools, including Woodfin Elementary School, will have more access to fresh fruits and vegetables during the school day next year thanks to a $2.7 million grant from the United States De- partment of Agriculture (USDA). Te other participating Bun-
combe County Schools for the 2010-11 school year are Candler, Emma, Johnston, Oakley and Pis- gah.
Te primary purpose of the grant
is to promote healthier food choices by introducing a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables as daily snacks for students and helping teachers incorporate nutrition education in lesson plans. Participating schools also make nutrition education a priority so students will learn how fresh fruits and vegetables are a critical part of a healthy diet. Tis is the seventh consecutive
year North Carolina has had the opportunity to participate in the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program. Barnardsville Elementary School was a recent participant. Elementary schools use the funds
to purchase and serve a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables to all enrolled students in participating schools. Schools that have previ- ously participated in the program
used the funds to provide fruit baskets inside classrooms, kiosks in the hallways, and other innova- tive approaches to give students the opportunity to grab fresh fruit or vegetable snacks during the school day. Participation in this program also promotes a healthier school en- vironment.
