California is a state of remarkable abundance — geographically, culturally, and agriculturally. From the fertile soils of the Central Valley to the rugged coastlines and dynamic urban centers, each region contributes its own unique character and bounty.

The Center for Ecoliteracy’s new guide, Fresh from California, celebrates this richness, highlighting the regional connections that strengthen our school meal programs, making them more resilient, and more deeply rooted in the communities they serve.
