Nutrition Center Tours

We encourage schools to make requests to visit our Nutrition Center and tour our facility.  The tours have been rewarding experiences for our staff, as well as the students who have toured our facility. Approximately one (1) hour should be allowed for the tour, which includes the opportunity for questions and answers and refreshments.

Complete the Nutrition Center Tour Request form and mail it to the Nutrition Center, or fax it to (562) 997-2683.
