It’s not just restaurants that are eligible for Yavapai County’s Golden Plate Awards. Any place that prepares food can get them. This includes the Humboldt Unified School District, which had four of its schools recognized for going above and beyond to prepare meals in a safe environment.
They are Humboldt Elementary School, which has received the honor for a tenth straight year, Granville Elementary School, Coyote Springs Elementary School, and Lake Valley Elementary School. To win a Golden Plate Award, food establishments must operate throughout the entire calendar year of 2024 without a violation, have an approved food safety plan, and have a person-in-charge with a manager-level food safety certificate.
