THOUSANDS TO DINE ON PRIDE OF DAKOTA SCHOOL LUNCHES
More than 54,222 students from 235 North Dakota schools will dine on food products from their own state on Thursday, Oct. 1, during the 14th Annual Pride of Dakota School Lunch Day. Representatives from the North Dakota Department of Agriculture (NDDA) will dine with students at schools across North Dakota on Thursday, and discuss with them the importance of agriculture in their own
