Harvest of the Month

Eat it. Grow it. Share it.

The Harvest of the Month program promotes a different Ohio-grown food each month. The goal is to make it easier for food service professionals to serve local foods and to provide materials educators and administrators can use to encourage students to eat healthfully and locally.

During the summer and school year, local food does more than nourish our bodies. It connects schools, homes, and entire communities.
