Also new this school year were “Fresh, Seasonal Food Tastings,” in which Ms. Scheuerlein, with help from Mary Arthur’s Culinary Arts students and local volunteers, offered tasty, nutritious lunchtime samples to students in both school cafeterias. Supported by Cole Family Foundation funding as well as food donations from local farms, the tastings are very popular with the students. Mrs. Arthur appreciates the opportunity for her students to work with locally grown produce, practice their knife skills, and learn about composting.
“We love the hands-on approach that Farm-to-Table offers at the middle school level,” remarked RCES Principal Dave Covington, who also likes the emphasis on healthy eating.
Asked about "his organization’s support of the program, Rappahannock County Farm Bureau President Chris Parrish explained, “The Farm Bureau supports any activity that promotes the family farm—anything that will help people stay in the county and make a living. We think supporting the Farmto-Table program is a nice way to give the Farm Bureau dues back to the county.”
A partnership between Headwaters—the Rappahannock County Public Education Foundation, the Rappahannock County Public Schools, and local farms, the Farm-to-Table Program is truly “Growing Pride” for Rappahannock County students.
For more information on the program, please contact Headwaters Executive Director Paige Coombs at 675-1819, or email Trista Scheuerlein at F arm2Table@hotmail.com.
