Fresh Food is Brain Food!
EMSA partners with Gourmet Gorilla in order to provide quality meals to our students that contain high quality ingredients and are eco-friendly.
We believe that natural and organic food should be accessible to everyone, especially children. So, we serve up nutritious meals on the best platform available: the school lunch tray. Our meals are cooked fresh early in the morning using as many locally sourced ingredients as possible. You can trace most of our ingredients back to Midwestern providers!
