National Farm to School Network

The National Farm to School Network is a nonprofit organization that connects schools with local farmers to bring fresh, locally-grown food into school meals. Its goal is to support healthy eating, strengthen local economies, and educate students about food origins and sustainability. By promoting farm-to-school programs, the network encourages schools to incorporate seasonal produce and involve students in understanding agriculture and nutrition. Ultimately, it fosters healthier school communities while supporting local farmers and promoting environmentally sustainable food systems.
