About the Program: 

The following description is a summary of our farm to school plan funded by a 2014 USDA Farm to School Program grant: The Reynoldsburg Edible Schoolyard Project is designed for K‐12 students to learn about nutrition, make ecological observations, and learn about local food systems and the business of creating a garden‐to‐cafeteria program. Partners include local child‐care provider, Kiddie Academy of Reynoldsburg, and the City of Reynoldsburg's Parks and Recreation Department. The education program will be integrated into the district's K‐12 STEM curriculum as well as STEM‐focused afterschool and summer programs.
