Great Apple Crunch

Wednesday, October 9, 2024

Registration is open!

Join the Great Apple Crunch to celebrate Iowa farmers, healthy kids, and strong communities this October. Participating in the Crunch is simple: buy, serve, and Crunch into locally grown apples!

Since 2014, we have highlighted National Farm to School Month and our local farmers with MILLIONS of Crunches across the region. Register your Crunch today to add to the Crunch count, get the scoop on purchasing and serving local apples, and get the Crunch Guide. Schools, ECE sites, hospitals, colleges, groups, and families are invited to Crunch to reach our goal of 1 MILLION CRUNCHES!

Noon on Wednesday, October 9, 2024 is the official Crunch date, but we welcome your Crunch any time this October. No event is too small to register! If your Crunch is not hosted by a school or organization, skip any questions that don't apply to you.
