The Marin Organic School Lunch and Gleaning Program continues to work on improving school lunches, as well as health and wellness, with local schools and communities in Marin County. Our New Year’s resolution is to nurture our existing relationships with schools while strengthening new relationships with all schools in our county. Marin Organic recognizes that, like every piece of land, farm and ranch is unique, so is every school, district and campus. We wish to work with every school in Marin in whatever way is truly helpful. Whether Marin Organic is delivering nutritious food to your school cafeteria, collaborating with parents, teachers, and school administrators, hosting an educational MO Farm Days field trip, or inviting you to join the MO Glean Team, we are here to help! Here is a quote in honor of an existing partnership:
"From the delicious, nutritious food for our program activities and Family Night meals at the Manzanita Children's Center (and our benefit night), to our fun enriching Farm Day field trip at Green Gulch, as well as the so graciously and generously offered gleaned food throughout the past season, all that Marin Organic has contributed has enriched us and our program, and the lives of the children and families we serve so very much. Thank you!"
