La Grande Famille is enrolled in the YWCA Child and Adult Food Program. It is a government sponsored program that monitors our meal preparation and child food intake to make sure we are providing balanced meals.
The cost of providing fresh fruit and home cooked meals as well as nutritious snacks has been on the rise. However, our food program allows us to still provide the quality food we have always provided by giving us a small reimbursement per child.
Below is a typical menu. Each week we try to serve the best looking produce, so items will vary!
