Farm to Table and Dining Services
Dining Services
At Futuro Verde, the integration of our dining services with our central mission and vision is of utmost importance. Our food is homemade every day from the most natural, organic ingredients we can acquire and prepared with love by our experienced kitchen staff. We strive to provide a varied lunch menu that includes recipes from around the world and we have menu codes to help those dining with us better understand where their food is coming from and what key ingredients it does or does not have.

Farm to Table
Farm to Table is an initiative Futuro Verde strives to achieve. Each year, our students of all ages work with farmers and individuals committed to sustainability in our community, with our school environmental education teacher and in their science classes in order to explore different ways to make our school more sustainable. As budget and weather permits, our students engage in vegetable, fruit and chicken farming in order to make a direct connection to the food that can be grown and produced in our own school yard.
