What is Farm to School? Farm to School is broadly defined as a program that connects schools (K-12)
and local farms with the objectives of serving healthy meals in school cafeterias, improving student nutrition, providing agriculture, health and
nutrition education opportunities, and supporting local and regional farmers. Since each Farm to School program is shaped by its unique community and region, the National Farm to School Network does not prescribe or impose a list of practices or products for the Farm to School approach. The National
Farm to School Network envisions a nation in which Farm to School programs are an essential component of strong and just local and regional food
systems, ensuring the health of all school children, farms, environment, economy and communities.
There are many publications available for download, along with the Farm to School brochure at www.http://www.farmtoschool.org/resources.php
