UMaine HEALTHY Research Study:

We are participating in a research study titled HEALTHY as an extension to the work we have done with the Maine Farm to School Institute.
They will be joining us during lunch (grades 3-8) throughout the spring to collect data as well as provide some healthy taste tests.

Please take a moment to give opt-in parental consent at the following link: https://umaine.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cA3FsDw8OmBWV5s (it only takes about 1 minute). This study is for students in grades 3-8.
