WELCOME TO WSESU SCHOOL NUTRITION

SUMMER MEAL INFORMATION & SIGN UP COMING SOON!

Mark your calendars for free summer meal kits for kids on Thursdays from 12-3pm at BAMS beginning 6/25/26. 

Each meal kit will contain ingredients for 7 breakfasts & lunches for children 18 years and younger. No sign up required — signing up helps us plan and sign up form will be available soon on this site. The Summer Food Service Program is completely federally funded and helps WSESU, our local farms, & our community!

Since transitioning to a self-operated school nutrition model beginning in June 2025, our team has been hard at work building a program rooted in scratch cooking, fresh ingredients, and strong community partnerships. We are preparing meals with care, creativity, and a deep commitment to student well-being.

One of the most exciting parts of this work has been expanding our use of local foods. Throughout the 2025-26 school year, students have enjoyed:

🍎Vermont-Grown Fruits & Vegetables

Crisp, delicious apples from Green Mountain Orchard, apple cider from Champlain Orchards,

fresh vegetables from Harlow’s, Swaz Farm, and Basin Farm—giving students a true taste of Vermont’s harvest.

🥛 Local Dairy

Yogurt from Kingdom Creamery, milk from Miller Farm, and cheese from Cabot—supporting local dairy farmers while offering nutritious, high-quality options.

🫘 Beans, Meat & Regional Proteins

Beans from Vermont Bean Crafters, beef from Franklin & Boyden Farms, and sausage from

Walpole Valley Farm, and eggs from Maple Meadows—bringing locally raised, thoughtfully produced proteins into our meals.
