Baldwin County School Nutrition
The Baldwin County School Nutrition Department was recognized for reaching a very impressive milestone. They have prepared and served over one million meals since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. When Baldwin County schools closed March 16, 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, the school nutrition department was faced with the challenge of creating alternative methods to provide meals to children in our community. Through the out of the box thinking, school nutrition staff were able to provide children throughout the Baldwin County community with nutritious and healthy meals in a safe manner.
