Superior Central’s Agriculture and Forestry class has been awarded a $5,000 grant to support a project that will bring more local food into the lunchroom through a LIFT-UP (Locally Integrated Food Teams in the UP) project. After meeting with farmers and food service to better understand their local food system, students designed a project that will provide school-grown food for the school lunch program through innovative projects that utilize their hoop house, indoor growing space, and a partnership with a farm. Superior Central has been growing food at the school since 2012.
