For many kids, summertime means food, friends and fun. However for families who count on school breakfast and lunch, the summer months can be stressful and family food budgets have to be stretched even further. Free summer meals, funded by the USDA, are available to kids and teens ages 18 and younger at summer meals sites across Corvallis and Philomath. Many summer meals sites offer fun recreational activities so kids and teens can eat a healthy meal while staying active and being with friends. Sites are also registered with the USDA and are held at safe local places like schools and community centers.
