This wikispace is designed to keep advocates of the project informed and connected as they move actions forward within each of the three working groups. Additionally, it is a source of inspiration and encouragement, a space that offers a forum for people to share resources and connect with all those who are interested and involved in bringing healthy and delicious food to our schools!
