All of today's menu was sourced from no more than 10 miles away from the school and students and guests were also able to tour the Food, Fiber & You trailer from @MAEFINC! Thanks so much to all that helped out today. We had such an amazing time! @MDFarm2School @FarmtoSchool

People are a main mode of transmission of the avian influenza virus into your flock, so now is the time to limit visitors to your farm. Make sure to keep a log book to track anyone coming onto the farm.
