A Token of Hope

As you guys know, I'm enamored of Jamie Oliver's "Food Revolution", both as a TV show and as a mission. I am horrified at what we feed our children in our school lunches and at the dinner table; obesity and its related illnesses are a national epidemic and this is a root cause. We have to do something about this.

Today this article was posted on Edutopia: School Lunches Go Back to the Land and it just makes me giddy. Whole foods being served to kids in schools? Kids working on a farm? Recylcling and composting? Love it!

If they can do in Baltimore, why can't we do it here? Or there, wherever you are? We should be doing better for our kids and this gives me much hope.
