  • 4 people are interested

We are looking for people to help record selection and consumption data of different menu items during school lunch in Ithaca in an effort to promote healthy, plant-based food in schools. The timeframe in which this would occur is from around 10 am to 1 pm on Thursdays this fall, which is when we would need volunteers to assist. If you are interested, could point me in the direction of anybody who is, or want more information, please reach out to me at aun2@cornell.edu.
