• The summer meals program is open to all children 18 & under, free of cost. Select locations start serving summer meals on Monday, June 21st.

  The summer meals program spans beyond schools to various recreation centers, camps, community centers, and libraries across Norfolk to help us reach Norfolk children where they already are. 

  No enrollment necessary, just simply show up to a feeding site during serving times.

• As School Nutrition prepares to transition into the summer academic break, there will be some changes to the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). 

  What is not changing:

  • Breakfast and lunch will be offered free of charge on all operational days to children participating in educational and childcare programs occurring in Norfolk Public Schools.
  • Grab-N-Go breakfast and lunch for any child (age 18 and under) will be available free of charge at the updated locations listed below. Meals may be picked up by a child or an adult.  Enrollment in an NPS program is not required. 
  • Meals for the weekend will be available on the last serving day of each week.
