Children at a Farm to School event

Farm to School

Farm 2 SchoolFood is something every child can relate to. Farm to school involves using cooking demonstrations, cafeteria taste testings, nutrition lessons, garden plots,and  farm field trips to engage students in dynamic, hands-on learning and supports teachers in meeting the state standards for elementary education.  Teachers are seeing students become incredibly engaged in this hands-on approach to teaching curriculum standards across all subjects using food, cooking, and gardening as a lens.

Farmtoschool.northwested.org hosts simple lesson plans, creative classroom activities, and the resources and support teachers seek to conduct farm to school within their own classrooms.
