The Upper Valley Farm to School Network brings together educators, farmers, and community members to integrate local food and farms into the classrooms, cafeterias, and communities of our region. Our staff is available to help you with your farm-to-school projects, be they large or small. Find out about our services and resources, and connect to other FTS schools.
Each year, Vital Communities Farm To School Program offers mini-grants (currently up to $700 each) to support farm-to-school projects in the Upper Valley. These grants can help your school, afterschool program, or school-related wellness program launch (or continue) projects related to farms, our agricultural heritage, farm products, food production, or local food consumption at the school.
All schools in the Vital Communities Service area are welcome to apply! Reach out to Andrew Deaett (andrew@vitalcommunities.org) with any questions or for assistance. We are excited to support your farm to school projects.
