Nine schools in California are set to benefit from the introduction of salad bars to their lunchtime offering.
It is thanks to a new grant from the Safeway Foundation, which will be used to fund salad bars at eight elementary schools and one middle school in the districts of Pleasanton, Hemet and Ventura.
According to The Packer, the grant supports the Let's Move Salad Bars to California Schools, a state initiative that's part of the broader campaign backed by the United Fresh Foundation.
The salad bars will serve nearly 6,500 students, with United Fresh having the ultimate goal of making 350 California salad bar donations by May.
