First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom visits Farm to School summer program

California First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom picks cilantro for tacos with third and fourth grade students in the Summer Culinary Academy at C.L. Smith Elementary School in the San Luis Coastal Unified School District. The visit this week was an opportunity to showcase a summer culinary initiative that teaches students how to prepare California-grown fruits and vegetables in delicious and nutritious ways. The initiative was funded in part through CDFA’s California Farm to School Incubator Grant Program, which supports projects that cultivate equity, nurture students, build climate resilience, and create scalable and sustainable change in school food service models.
