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: “re:TH!NK,” a healthy living coalition in the state of Wisconsin and a program of the Winnebago County Health Department, will support farm to school programs in three participating school districts through freezing of local produce for use in school lunches, promoting healthy eating through various farm to school activities, events, and programs, and establishing the framework for the development of a self‐sustaining system to manage the procurement of locally‐grown food for use in school lunches.
