鈥淲e wanted to give the campus an opportunity to get locally-grown fresh fruits and vegetables and introduce health eating habits to our students,鈥 he said.
Farmers saw a steady line of customers wanting strawberries, mangoes, tomatoes and apples. So did Pomona-based , who served up fruit jars filled with decadent drinks.
鈥淭he iced coffee is really good. It beats Starbucks,鈥 said Christopher Cormier, kinesiology major.
Marijane Chuang, owner of the Chino Valley company , said she鈥檚 never vended on a college campus before, but had high hopes of success at 性视界. Her company sells various pet food products.
