Recipes from Shepherd Valley Waldorf School's Treasured Early Childhood Classes and After School Programs

Daily, weekly and yearly rhythms are the foundation upon which the early childhood classes are created. A grain is connected with and served for each day. Care is taken in the preparation and serving of our food. The table is set in a beautiful way with folded cloth napkins and lighted candles. We say a blessing with every meal.

Hands together, hands apart,
Hands together, we are ready to start.
Earth, who gives to us this food;
Sun, who makes it ripe and good.
Dear Sun above and Earth below;
Our loving thanks to you we show.
And, we ask God’s blessings on our
Meal, on our family, on our friends,
And on us.
