Locally Sourced

Say hello to Sucré—now hitting our breakfast bars! This 100% white grape juice with no added sugar, is locally grown and produced just for the Central Kitchen. Farmer David Ogilvie of Sucré Farms in Clarksburg (that’s a quick 15 miles from the Central Kitchen) knew just the thing to make our breakfast offerings even tastier. We’re thrilled to share this with our students as part of the CDFA California Farm to School Incubator Grant Program, which helps us support local growers, boost our region’s economy and bring something a little extra special to our kids.
