April Harvest of the Month is the crimini mushroom

The Harvest of the Month for April is the Crimini Mushroom from Mountain Meadow Mushrooms located in Escondido, Calif. Find this super veggie on school salad bars every Wednesday during the month of April.

To help educate students on where the Harvest of the Month produce item comes from, San Diego Unified has created monthly Harvest of the Month videos that act as virtual field trips to the farm. These videos are an opportunity to connect students to their food and local farmers. We encourage principals to have their teachers share the videos in the classroom so students can experience the full circle of their food.
