Durango School District Farm to School Program

The following description is a summary of our farm to school plan funded by a 2014 USDA Farm to School Program grant: This project will take an existing space within the Durango School District and repurpose it into an aggregation center that will service the Durango School District and four surrounding districts. It will allow access to more nutritious, locally grown foods in meals, allow for larger purchases of local foods, and allow for greater control in inventory, food safety, and trackback. Most importantly, this project will provide the infrastructure necessary to continue to expand the farm to school programming in the southwest.
