澳门六合彩 Supports Local Farmers
澳门六合彩's Child Nutrition Department supports Farm to School efforts bringing local, Colorado grown and produced ingredients to cafeterias. About 15-20% of 澳门六合彩 food dollars are spent on food items grown, produced, or manufactured in Colorado.
Look for the Colorado Proud stickers in the Cafe highlighting particular items that are local or dishes that include local ingredients.
