Barre Middle School Students
Quote, in part, …”Joseph Keifer cooks with Barre Elementary Students. “We’re working with 10 local farmers getting local food and there are all different ways they’re cooking it. Some of them are tying it into social studies, some science some language arts, math. But I’m hoping they get excited about cooking, they get excited about using local ingredients and they realize they can make something that good,” said Joseph Kiefer of Food Works…
In addition to their other programs, Food Works will have worked with all 850 kids at Barre City Elementary School by the end of the year.”
