Beginning June 1, Greenfield Exempted Village School District will be serving food at three locations across the district for kids 18 years old and younger.

It’s the fourth year for the summer feeding program and it’s called Tiger Bites. With the exception of weekends and July 3, lunch and a breakfast for the next day will be served Monday through Friday, June 1 through July 31.

The locations of service each day are the colonnades on Fifth Street in Greenfield from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., the rear parking lot by the playground at Buckskin Elementary from 11:30 a.m. to noon, and the Rainsboro Elementary parking lot from 12:45 pm to 1:15 pm.

Parents and guardians may pick up meals for the children in the household during those times. 

There are no applications, but if you plan to pick up a child's meal without the child being with you, please fill out the linked form https://forms.gle/6pbqqFnxMr82Bs9Q8. It helps ensure compliance with state and federal regulations while continuing to serve families efficiently. If you have any questions, please contact Shelley Smith, GEVSD Food Service Director @ 937-981-3410.

It was previously reported by former district food service director Stephanie Lanning that the district developed this food service program to help with food insecurity through the summer months. It’s something that the summer feeding program through Highland County Community Action helped alleviate for many years, but unfortunately that program was unable to continue.

The food service program is funded through the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
