Hello! My name is Amy McIntosh and I will be the hot lunch provider this year for Whitefield Academy. I am so excited to be serving the school in this way. Just a little bit about me…my husband and I have four children, three of which attend Whitefield. My husband, Matt, is the Bible teacher for the school. We have been involved with Whitefield for 11 years and are so blessed to be a part of the Whitefield family.
I have wanted to be able to provide healthy hot lunches for the school so I am really looking forward to this opportunity. I try to fix healthy, balanced meals for my family and I will do my best to provide the same for the hot lunches at Whitefield. I bake my own whole wheat bread and, as often as possible, I will use that when serving sandwiches. When you see that I am serving a roll, tortilla or a wrap, you can know that it will be whole wheat. I also use only cage free, hormone free eggs (from our chickens in our own backyard!) in my cooking. I use as many fresh veggies and fruits as possible. I basically use organic products whenever possible. My family has a garden and we have “put up” much of our harvest. I will be using these in my cooking as well. I also purchase hormone free milk, poultry and beef.
Another aspect of what I would like to do is establish recycling and composting. The service I have purchased is all compostable and biodegradable. We will be recycling everything that we cannot compost. Once again, I look forward to serving you and your children this year.
