Eatiquette

Vetri Community Partnership partners with schools to help them bring healthy scratch-made, family-style meals to their students' school lunch program. Titled "Eatiquette," the program aims to transform a child's lunch from the traditional cafeteria assembly line to an environment where children gather around round tables, pass plates of food to one another and experience social interaction and communication. This program extends into the classroom with our Chef Mentors instructing students in hands-on lessons during school time, as well as offering similar lessons to adults and caregivers in the community. These lessons focus on cooking skills and techniques as well as nutrition education.
