The Farm to School program grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture will support the district’s projects bringing local foods to local schools.
The program hires staff to cultivate a farm plot on school district property, increasing students’ access to local foods and engaging students in educational farming and gardening activities.
The program serves Montezuma and La Plata counties, as well as the Ute Mountain Ute and Southern Ute tribes.
