Harvest of the Month Student Contest
Congratulations to the Participants of the PA Harvest Of The Month Student Contest
WOLCS was awarded the PA Harvest of the Month (PHOM) Student Contest Grant to engage students in a contest! Several students had the opportunity to be contestants, learn about healthy foods and create video messages. We applaud all our students who participated. The contest winners, "We The Healthy People," created a captivating Tik-Tok style video promoting the significance of healthy eating. Their video not only showcased their talents and select PA Produce from the PHOM calendar (Strawberries and Dairy) but also earned praise from the State Agency for exceptional quality.
All students exhibited notable enthusiasm and commitment as they represented the WOLCS Community. Under the guidance of our instructors, they explored the world of strawberries and dairy, discovering numerous ways to incorporate these nutritious ingredients into wholesome meals and snacks and creating video messages.
