School Food Service Professionals
Working with Farmers
Integrating Farm to School activities into your school
district can create new opportunities, as well as some new
challenges. To begin your Farm to School efforts, you may
consider starting with the following steps:
- Conduct a self-assessment of
your school food service operations
- Create a Farm to School plan or
vision
- Contact farmers in your community
For additional information on working with farmers, please
consult the
Farm to
School Implementation and Promotion and
Farmers’
Perspective in Selling to Schools sections of the USDA Farm
to School Team 2010 Summary Report and visit our
