Nancy grew up in, and eventually bought, that business, which birthed Caravan Kids Catering.

1 in 13 children in the U.S. has a food allergy. Did you know that’s about 2 students in every classroom?

May is Food Allergy Awareness Month, and we put a lot of care into serving food safely every day.

Our team takes extra steps through:
✔ Carefully planned allergen-free menus
✔ Ingredient label reviews
✔ Allergen staff training & testing
✔ Dedicated prep and packaging areas
✔ Procedures designed to help prevent cross-contact

And while safety comes first, flavor still matters. Our allergen-free menu includes flavorful meals like beef & broccoli, chicken fajitas with rice, chicken pilaf, and more!

For us, it's more than avoiding ingredients. It’s about helping students feel included at mealtime.
