North Carolina Crunch
October 23
North Carolina Crunch, co-sponsored by the NC Farm to Preschool Network, is a statewide event that celebrates North Carolina agriculture, National Farm to School and Early Care and Education Month, apples grown by local farmers, and healthy eating.
Join the state of North Carolina in celebrating Farm to School and Early Care and Education Month by crunching into a locally grown fruit or vegetable on Wednesday, October 23, 2024 at noon or any time during the month of October that works for you. The NC Crunch is also a great opportunity to thank all those involved in feeding our communities. This event is about uniting together to celebrate North Carolina agriculture, locally grown fruits and vegetables, and healthy eating. Participants of all ages are invited to crunch with their schools, early care and education sites, organizations, families, or communities. Help us reach all 100 counties and 500,000 kids and adults with the NC Crunch!
The North Carolina Crunch promotes healthy eating and supports farm to school, farm to early care and education (ECE), and other local food initiatives throughout the state. It’s also a fun and educational way to connect food and agriculture to all kinds of classroom curricula – from science to art!
