Farm to School
EAT SMART BROWN COUNTY!
We want to transform our community into a place where health, academic achievement, and the economy are supported by increased access to affordable, healthy, local food. We will promote a healthy food system, beginning with development of a comprehensive Farm-to-School Program to connect local food producers and food services directors as well as develop a more coordinated approach to nutrition education and school gardening.
Harvest of the Month
Brown County’s Comprehensive Farm to School program works to bring local, healthy food to children and increase physical activity.
Harvest of the Month will feature an in-season, Wisconsin-grown produce item. Through the combined effort of local schools, retailers and organizations, the Harvest of the Month message will spread and be celebrated by the entire community!
Monthly Elements of Harvest of the Month include nutrition education through taste-testing and:
- Family Newsletters
