There are currently running a contest for a school to win a Farm to School Program below is some info from the Roots 4 Kids page. Be sure to check out the page for full info.:
From April 5 through May 31, Root 4 Kids is calling on schools across America to generate sign-ups for their school at www.Root4Kids.com/join. The school that receives the most sign ups will win its choice of a Farm to School program or school garden.
The Farm to School program prize includes working with a state National Farm to School Network leader to customize a combination of activities that best help students become more deeply connected to real food. Options may include: introductory lessons on where food comes from; farm field trips; meals following a farm visit using vegetables harvested by students; garden sessions in the spring or fall; a “tasting table” featuring a sampling of freshly harvested vegetables; and more.
The school garden prize includes basic supplies, including seeds, soil and select tools, and assistance from a gardening expert to get the garden started.
