This new Farm to School Program involved community members who were willing to grow a few tomato plants in their garden or in pots for our new Signature Pizza Sauce that was introduced this year in many school lunch menu items!

​

Project Tomato is an affordable way to help bring local ingredients into children’s lunches AND you don’t even have to leave your house to help make this happen!

​

In May of 2018 we will had at 50 determinate tomato plants who found a home.  Once the fruit was ripe these healthy tomatoes were dropped off to be stored for the sauce making.

​

The end of May 2019 we will have heaps of tomato plants looking for a home to be grown for next years

Pizza sauce! Interested? Give us a shout.

​

We also would love to take any extra tomatoes you have growing in your garden this year! 

​

With each plant you will also get a handout that describes the safe gardening practices needed to use the tomatoes in school lunches.

​

We also want to thank Gitto Farms of Watertown for selling us organic Romas to help us get enough tomatoes!
