Sprucing Up School Food With Gleaned Produce
Produce gleaned from local farms has been an ingredient staple at CommonWealth Kitchen (CWK) in Dorchester, Massachusetts since its founding days in 2009. A 2018 BioCycle article that featured CWK (scroll to end of post) reported that CWK processed over 2 tons of surplus Massachusetts apples purchased from the Boston Area Gleaners into 400 gallons of applesauce for Boston Children’s Hospital and the Boston Public Schools. That project helped lay the groundwork for CWK to collaborate with local gleaners to supply nutritious food to school districts in its region. Its facility in Dorchester houses a commissary kitchen that offers recipe development, ingredient preparation, cooking, packing and labeling and freezing if needed.

Norwell football star shines in 'his Michael Jordan flu game'
RANDOLPH — Jason Pithie received the text message that no high school football coach wants. Norwell High star senior quarterback Jack Luccarelli reached out at 7:28 a.m. Friday morning to alert Pithie of a flu-like illness that caught on overnight, 11 hours before the team's game vs. Randolph was scheduled to kick off. "My entire day went out the window," said Pithie, the second-year head coach. Luccarelli went to school for the mandatory four hours needed to be eligible to play and opted to give it a go. He rode to the game with his father, Matt, separate from the team. Back-up Ryan Bonzagni, a junior, was ready for the call-up. Luccarelli was undeterred. He stacked 5 touchdowns (3 rushing, 2 passing) as Norwell rolled to a 41-6 road victory over the Blue Devils on Friday, Oct. 30. "With him, you always expect greatness," said senior lineman Xander Wilkinson. "He manned up," Pithie said. "It was his Michael Jordan flu game." Luccarelli dropped back to find senior wideout Cole Maguire for a 63-yard touchdown strike on the Clippers' opening drive. He also spotted Bonzagni, who broke a tackle on his path, for a 43-yard touchdown in the second quarter. More:
