The Mountain Plains Crunch Off is a multi-state competition to celebrate Farm to School Month in October. States throughout the region (CO, MT, MO, KS, NE, ND, SD, WY) compete to achieve the most per capita “crunches” into local produce– like apples, carrots, nuts, seeds, and more. Nebraska schools and childcare centers have accepted the challenge by crunching to higher levels year after year and we’ve been the 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023 Crunch Off Champions. Let’s keep it going!
Students, teachers, farmers, parents, organizations, community members, and local food enthusiasts can register their team and crunch into local fruits, vegetables, or seeds anytime in October! Together we can celebrate local food and farm to school programs throughout Nebraska.
