Roasted Corn for all to Enjoy!

Girard students had a wonderful opportunity to taste an ear of roasted corn. The Dady Family brought their corn roaster to provide each student with their own hot, buttery ear of corn. For many, this was their first taste of roasted corn. The corn was provided by area co-ops. The experience for our students was in partnership with our Healthy Food for a Happy World grant.
