Case of Fruit for a School

Fresh fruit can be hard to come by for many families. We know that Canadian children and youth are not eating enough fruit and vegetables, and can greatly benefit from the rich nutrition they provide. A case of fruit can quickly fill bins and bowls around a school for easy access to a snack when needed. Fruit accompanies almost every school meal or snack - whether it's whole, sliced, blended or baked into a muffin. The most frequently purchased fruits are apples, bananas, oranges, strawberries and grapes, although schools strive to serve a wide variety.
