N.Y. schools pilot local food program

Ten schools in a New York district are participating in a pilot program where food from local farms and suppliers will be served in the cafeterias, reports WBFO.

The program, Local foods for local kids, will serve meals including year-round foods—like potatoes, milk or yogurt—plus seasonal items such as kale and strawberries.

Officials say they have developed the recipes and given them to the cooks to prepare a live demonstration of the meals to be served at the farm-to-school events, according to WBFO.
