We're so grateful for all the work that you do in serving healthy and nutritious meals and snacks! Print out our Certificates of Awesomeness for staff, colleagues, or even to give yourself a pat on the back from us!
It's important to teach CACFP participants how to identify healthy foods, which is why we lead by example by serving nutritious meals and snacks. Download the USDA's posters on serving tasty and healthy foods, and for some added education, check out our Go, Slow, Whoa resource.

The Dr. Yum Project is a pediatrician founded and led non-profit organization on a mission to help families overcome barriers to eating well, the most common being that healthy food doesn’t taste good, is hard to make and is expensive. We are here to show busy families this doesn’t have to be true! Start with our WIC Food Package search tag to find recipes with at least 75% of the ingredients found on the list. Then check out Dr. Yum’s Meal-o-Matic, a free e-tool that allows you to make a custom recipe out of what you have at home. Have a baby getting ready to start solid foods?
