Farm-to-school workshops, projects planned in West

Throughout the West, myriad efforts are underway to expand youngsters access to fresh, locally grown food. The University of California Cooperative Extension and its community partners have received nearly $500,000 from the state Department of Food and Agriculture to expand farm-to-school projects.  The CDFA Office of Farm to Fork s 2021 California Farm to School Incubator Grant Program has awarded $8.496 million in grants to 60 farm-to-school projects throughout the state, including a pair of UC Cooperative Extension projects. Farm-to-school programs are far from just a California thing, however. For instance, Montana schools projects will be highlighted at the Montana Farm to School Summit in August.
