Global Gardens’ Child Care CSA is designed for child care centers and in-home day cares where snacks or meals are generally provided for the children. The program is in partnership with Nutrition Works but open to any child care center. (Nutrition Works can help qualified centers pay for these shares.)
Members will receive a weekly box of produce that includes five kid-friendly items, so that children can have one farm snack each day. Some items can be served raw, such as carrots, snap peas, and radishes, and other will need to be cooked, such as zucchini and sweet corn.
Your share also includes a free field trip to the Global Gardens farm, so that children can see where their food is grown!
We offer two share sizes. The large share ($525.00) is sized for 12 children and the small share ($325.00) for 6 children. Shares will be delivered by Nutrition Works on Fridays for participating centers, or available for pickup on Thursday afternoon or Fridays for centers that don’t participate in Nutrition Works.
If your childcare center is interested in purchasing a CSA, please contact Food Hub Coordinator Hannah Roche.
