At Jessica's Daycare, lunch is more than a meal โ it's a lesson. Since 2000, FCCANYS Board Member and CACFP Ambassador Jessica Dean has run a "seed to belly" program where children grow, harvest, and help prepare their own food. From caprese salads made with fresh garden tomatoes to sweet potato brownies, Jessica's approach shows what's possible when family child care providers connect children to where their food comes from. Hunger Solutions New York recently featured her inspiring story.
