GCSD “Students Feeding Students”

The following description is a summary of our farm to school plan funded by a 2014 USDA Farm to School Program grant: The farm to school program in Greenup County will bring together multiple collaborating entities to support the building of school gardens, opening of farmer’s markets, connecting to the local farmers, and incorporating gardening into the curriculum. This multifaceted approach will increase student knowledge of gardening, agriculture, and nutrition. In addition, students will have greater access to fresh fruits and vegetables that are locally grown.
