This year, Ellenville students have been enjoying the return of the Rondout Valley Growers Association's "Farm to School" program. On the menu in the school cafeterias on January 26 was bison chili, which was prepared using bison from Highland Farm in Germantown and beans from Milestone Mill in Kingston. Students could opt for “just a bite” samples for tasting and/or full-size portions for their lunch. Looks delicious!
