Davis Farm to School
Founded in 2000, Davis Farm to School (DF2S) supports the Davis Joint Unified School District in their goals to provide farm and garden-based education, farm fresh foods in school meals, and to reduce solid waste through recycling and composting programs. In addition to our work with schools, we bring our message to the larger Davis community through community events and our close association with the Davis Farmers Market. The mission of Davis Farm to School is to create an educational and cultural environment in our schools that connects food choices with personal health, community, farms and the land. In Fall of 2016, the DF2S Steering Committee added several new members with the objective of refocusing and strengthening the organization. We have successfully attracted a diverse leadership team and are eager to enhance the sustainability of our garden programs while simultaneously expanding our vision to include a broader cultural awareness and commitment to ecological stewardship.
