Bladen County Schools is pleased to announce that all district elementary schools have been selected to participate in the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) for the 2025-2026 school year. The program provides elementary students attending Bladen Lakes Primary, Bladenboro Primary, Dublin Primary, East Arcadia Elementary, Elizabethtown Primary, and Tar Heel School with fresh fruit and vegetable snacks throughout the week at no cost.

Introducing children to a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables at a young age helps them to develop healthy eating habits that can last a lifetime.
