FOOD MENU

Food is something we have become very experienced with here at Evergreen.  Chef Grace has been preparing meals for our students since we began our school.  With a professionally equipped kitchen and a menu that keeps improving year after year, we are confident that the meals we prepare for our students will exceed our parent’s expectations.  We embrace the responsibility of feeding children 3 meals a day with enthusiasm and creativity.

We do our best to purchase local ingredients from Ontario and focus more on the look, smell, and taste of the ingredients than on labels.  We view the words organic, natural, real, and so on as buzz words used by marketing teams.  Organic doesn’t necessarily mean better quality or less toxic, but if we decide the organic version is better quality, we will choose it.  Some of our ingredients come from ontario farms like our maple syrup or potatoes, and we purchase our meat from Brother’s Butcher (brothersbutchershoppe.com).

We support regenerative agriculture and growing your own food, even if that means growing some herbs and veggies and adding them to some dishes.  Our emphasis on having students grow herbs and vegetables offers them an incredible learning experience and provides a small amount of truly local ingredients for our menu.
