Congratulations to the 26 CT School Districts who completed our SY 2023-2024 Put Local On Your Tray Program. These districts took the Pledge to put local on THEIR trays, and worked with the Tray Team to complete their goals in sourcing local products, serving fresh foods in cafeterias, celebrating CT farms, and building Farm to School Teams.
