The ban on junk food and baked good sales at schools provides a great opportunity for farm-made value added products to step in and support school fundraising!

How about selling:
1/2 lb blocks of Shelburne Farms Cheese
SchoolHouse Kitchen Mustards, Chutneys, Jams, and Dressings *
* FBEA Members get 10% off wholesale
Hawthorne Valley Farm Cheese
