o This is a voluntary program, and it is not one that we are reliant upon for providing healthy lunches to our students.
o We accept donations from community partners that wish to support the school, and we make a conscious effort to publicize their donations and thank them for their generosity.
o Our students enjoy the quality of beef that we receive from our local producers. We have found that their product is of superior quality to what we might otherwise purchase through our commodities program.
o In addition to accepting donations, we are also interested and able to purchase beef from local producers from time to time. It may be especially beneficial when a local producer has an animal that has become lame or injured and has to be butchered off of their normal schedule. When this occurs, it may leave a local producer in need of a consumer to take the unscheduled product off their hands. This can be an ideal opportunity to partner with the school for either a donation or a school purchase.
o If there are any local producers interested in partnering with the school through the “Farm to School” program, don't hesitate to get in touch with our Food Services Manager, Vicki Heninger (school number is 605-258-2618 or email: Vickie.Heninger@K12.SD.US).
