We've got a lot of exciting highlights to share this month!


Check out what team DNO was up to in February: 

 

We were excited to host our partners at Pilot Light for a tour of our operations! We also fired up our brains with an electrifying strategy session to discuss our latest and greatest program - SnackTime Explorers!


This game-changing educational toolkit is now lighting up Chicago Public Schools and taking the FFVP game to the next level!

The Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association (OEFFA) aims to promote a future focused on sustainable agriculture to protect and enhance our environment.


Did you know? OEFFA provides our organic certification!


As longtime partners of OEFFA, we’re proud to support their efforts, and were thrilled to donate some of our favorite local produce - butternut squash, green peppers, onions, sweet potatoes, and mushrooms for the conference meals!

We ❤️ Sustainability

"Elementary students across Chicago Public Schools are the first in the nation to receive so-called “produce passports.” It’s part of a new program helping kids build a healthy and positive relationship with fruits and veggies." 


Eileen Torpy, director of school and district partnerships at Pilot Light, recently sat down with WBEZ Chicago's Reset team to talk about our recent collaboration, SnackTime Explorers!
