"Being able to quickly and efficiently evaluate products in the school marketplace is beneficial and offering immediate alternatives to those products that contain less harmful ingredients is what makes Green Onion unique and an indispensable tool for every school nutrition program across the country."Green Onion currently serves more than 2.3 million students in 12 states and continues to expand in collaboration with Eliassen Group, whose technical expertise and shared commitment to healthier school meals remain central to the tool's mission and impact.School districts and school food professionals interested in creating a free Green Onion account may learn more and get started on Life Time Foundation website.
