| We are a collaborative of local producers, schools and community agencies who are dedicating resources, time and talent to introduce and incorporate local, fresh food into the existing school food service programs; assisting our region in sustaining healthy farms, schools and children.
It is our intention to support regional economic development, by providing an easy-to-use system enabling local producers to provide school systems with fresh foods.

Empty shopping malls are strange animals.
Thanks for good information..
Thanks for the sharing the info.
I want to know if there is new updates about this. I will check back to read. Thank you so much!
This is great! I need to get a handle on this an this is a great start.
a great program that all schools should adopt. Be a healthy child advocate while supporting your local farms.
I am looking for more updates. So, it will be of grat help if you can provide your readers with more useful info on this.
Good info. Keep on providing your readers with such useful updates.
Simply make time out of your busy schedule and attend a concert where your best artist is performing. The experience is guaranteed to leave you breathless.
At least we know that what our children eating in school are farm fresh. Thanks for the info!
I think we all should take out time to attend a good concerts. This can surely help you to breathe fresh air.
Though nowadays we all remain busy with our work, we need to take out atleast a few hours from our busy shcedule in order to attend good programs.
Honestly speaking I always make sure that I am not missing any of the good programs. What about you?
I really like to attend good cultutral programs. But nowadays as I am going through excessive work pressure, sometimes I have to sacrifice this for the sake of working.

Great post, all the best with your project. I like your website also.
Often I take a half day leave from office merely for the sake of attending my favorite artists' show.
It's good to see this type of program for our children here in the USA. I remember the food at school as being less than desirable.
I am really glad to know that this type of programs for children are being held in the United States. I want to wish all the organizers of these events good luck.
I grew up on a farm and sold produce to half my classmates. It's a dying practice and the end of Middle America as we know it.
Organic food should be the norm, not the exception for school lunch programs nationwide. The true shame is it's a dying art.
Wish I could attend this event. Any\way thanks for the news.
Organic food production is very big here in Breckenridge, CO. We have local produce supplied to all area schools within Summit County.
My kids love it and you can't knock the health benefits. It really should be more widely embraced nationwide.
I must say that it's a wonderful event and I would be glad if I could get a chance to attend it.
It is indeed a great event. Wish I could take part in it.
It is far better for your health to eat local produce, the vitamin content is much higher than food thats been sitting on the supermarket shelf for a week which has lost approximately 40% of its vitamin content.
Fresh is best.
I always love to attend good programs. So, whever I see my favorite artists are performing in a show I try to attend it as much as posisble.
I always try to attend good cultural programs. However, sometimes due to work pressure I have to miss some of the nice events.
Thanks for the useful information .Appreciated !
