Instructions

1. Arrive at your chosen site during the designated time with your child and ask for a meal.
2. Your child will receive a free prepared meal that meets federal nutrition guidelines.

 

What to Expect

One meal per child at breakfast time and one meal per child at lunch time. The meals are cold meals and mostly turkey based. No pork, no peanut butter.

You may visit any site at any time, but going to the same site each day is preferable so that the site knows how many meals to order.
