After introducing North Crawford School District as a 2026 Crave Tournament of Champions finalist earlier this week, we wanted to share something that makes their program especially memorable.
North Crawford is helping students build a connection to their food by teaching them how it grows. Through hands-on learning experiences, students gain a better understanding of where their food comes from and the work that goes into producing it.
It's more than a lesson about nutrition—it's about cultivating curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong appreciation for healthy foods.
We're proud to recognize North Crawford School District and the positive impact they're making both inside and outside the cafeteria. Congratulations on being a Crave Tournament of Champions finalist!
