MONTANA — Individuals across Montana are invited to participate in Montana Crunch Time, a celebration of local food and National Farm to School Month, set for 2 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 20.
Montana Crunch Time is a statewide event where participants crunch into locally and regionally grown apples. The event is designed to encourage healthy eating habits and support local food-based initiatives throughout the state. It is also intended to help people learn through healthy food and nutrition choices. All Montanans are encouraged to participate.
This year, states throughout the Mountain Plains Region – Colorado, Montana, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Utah, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming – are competing to see which state can get the most “crunches.” The state with the most crunches per capita wins the Crunch Off crown. Crunches must be registered online to count toward the total.
