Volunteers harvest 350 pounds of blueberries for school cafeterias:
Community volunteers helped harvest 350 pounds of blueberries Aug. 4 at Majestic Farms, continuing a six-year partnership that brings locally grown berries to area school cafeterias.
Representatives from Chartwells Food Services, area school district employees and community volunteers joined to glean the farm’s end-of-season blueberries, according to a Hockinson School District news release.
The berries will be distributed to cafeterias in the Hockinson, Battle Ground, Ridgefield and Washougal school districts.
Majestic Farms has donated its end-of-season blueberries to Hockinson School District’s Nutrition Services program for the past six years. The farm-to-school partnership provides the berries at no cost and helps bring fresh produce to students’ meals.
