At our Farmers Markets the students learn the importance of “eating a rainbow” and put their taste buds to the test by sampling spinach and arugula seasoned with orange. 🍊
Students described the greens as “crunchy,” “soft,” and “flat,” but our favorite reviews were:
💚 “This is delicious!”
💚 “I ate everything!”
Moments like these are why we love helping kids try new foods, build healthy habits, and discover that nutritious choices can be tasty, too!
Way to go, young food adventurers! 🌈✨

At our 2026 Dinner & Auction, we were proud to highlight the impact of our scholarship program and recognize this year’s awardees.
With a vision to support the next generation of culinary talent, we launched our scholarship program in 2024. The Michael Ty Culinary Award has been part of our mission from the very beginning, and over the past three years, we’ve proudly awarded seven scholarships to aspiring culinary students.
This year, we’re excited to expand our impact with the addition of the Chefs for Kids Culinary Fund and Rancho High School culinary as our first recipient!
Together, these programs continue to invest in future chefs and create opportunities through education and mentorship. 🍽️✨
Meet this year’s amazing awardees? 👀 #linkinbio #chefsforkids

Today was our final Pick a Better Snack lesson of the year with Mrs. Baptista! We wanted to share a special moment from Bring a Kid to Work Day, when her son joined us and helped teach the broccoli and cauliflower lesson alongside his mom. It was a fun and memorable experience for everyone!

14 schools. 140 families. $50 grocery cards, nutrition packets and to-go bags of fruits and veggies. Because fighting hunger isn’t just about feeding kids today. It’s about giving families the knowledge and confidence to build healthier tomorrows.
