Our Lunch Program

The Honey Bear Hut, our kitchen, initially housed a complete food service program begun by an enterprising founding student and named for his family dog Honey Bear. Today, we continue to provide healthy, nutritious, appealing, locally sourced (where possible) meals, with low environmental impact. Academy student groups are responsible for helping to prepare, serve, and clean up lunch, preserving the familial feel of the lunch hour. Student groups are able to earn funds for their activities or charities that match their interests through work as well as the sale of homemade desserts. Our Food & Gardens Council also raises some of the vegetables and greens served in the HBH in raised beds on our campus.

Currently, lunch is cooked in-house three days each week, with offerings via local eateries available the other two days. Our lunch menu is published weekly in our community-wide newsletter ‘The Bulletin’, students can sign up immediately after Morning Meeting each day.
