Your October Recipes, Live PC Give PC & More!

Thank you, EATS Family and Friends, for your incredible outpouring of support! We have resumed in-person afterschool classes at Ecker Hill Middle School. We have a greater garden education partnership with Parley’s Park Elementary School and provide food security resources for grades K – 9 in Summit County.

Through the summer and fall, you have joined EATS’ virtual cooking classes. Some of you have purchased ingredients through EATS, and others have joined in the fun. Either way, it’s been a delicious journey. This work is made possible because of your support, and we are so grateful. Our virtual cooking classes are focused on children in school, for now, but they will be back this winter with a “Healthy Holidays” theme.

As we move into the winter, there is continuing uncertainty for some if they will have the resources they need to feed their families. EATS, in partnership with CCPC, ensures that children facing food insecurity have a meal. Please consider a donation to EATS to help us provide this essential work, keeping children nourished so they can be their best, most healthy selves.

Thank you again for your support!

Did You Know…

EATS has removed styrofoam from our Park City School District elementary school cafeterias!

We opened a dialogue with PCSD and CNS in 2014 and haven’t let the issue slip from our radar.  While we continue to work with the District and its initiatives to focus on fresh, local foods, EATS has committed to filling this gap in environmental sustainability and providing compostable containers to students.

Here is where we need your help! These compostable containers cost $.28 more than the styrofoam ones, for $50.40, removing 180 styrofoam containers from our elementary schools. You can donate $50.40, $100.80, $151.2, or whatever you can contribute to the cause HERE.

EATS protects our children and our environment while supporting our partner, PCSD, as they navigate these extraordinary times.
