High school celebs launch Anoka-Hennepin's 'got veggies?' campaign

Oxbow Creek Elementary School students smiled up in awe as a local volleyball star served them salad at lunch time. They eagerly waited their turns as 15-year-old Izzy Ashburn handed out sample cups of romaine lettuce, diced apples, chicken and quinoa.

Sporting their “got veggies?” shirts, Champlin Park High School students seemed to have no trouble getting elementary students to eat their vegetables.

“These are like rock stars to them,” said Noah Atlas, the district’s child nutrition program director.
