The Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) is a federally funded program providing free fresh fruits
and vegetables to children at all Salem elementary schools during the school day. The goal of the FFVP is to introduce children to fresh fruits and vegetables, to include new and different varieties, and to increase overall acceptance and consumption of fresh, unprocessed produce among children. The FFVP also encourages healthier school environments by promoting nutrition education.
