October is Farm to School Month

October 1, 2020 by Kathy N

Farm to School in Virginia is purposefully diverse and locally and regionally motivated. Programming encompasses local procurement for economic viability, nutrition education, environmental stewardship, food and agricultural literacy, school gardens, as well as a long-term approach to classroom agricultural education. It enriches the connection communities have with fresh, healthy food and local food growers and producers. The heart of the program focuses on developing long-term, economically beneficial relationships throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia.  http://www.farmtoschool.org/our-network/Virginia
