Fuel Your Body

The following description is a summary of our farm to school plan funded by a 2014 USDA Farm to School Program grant: The “Fuel Your Body” project will plan a comprehensive farm to school program at all five Pryor Public Schools’ sites, serving 2,600 students in grades K‐12. Funding will support farm to school planning meetings and workshops, conduct inventories of all facilities, create farm to school farm/produce partnerships, complete an assessment with the farm to school evaluation toolkit, and create a plan for sustainability. Partners include the Extension Service, the Cherokee Nation, the State Farm to School Program, Shanks Farm, and others. Upon completion of the planning period, Pryor Public Schools will have the infrastructure, capacity, and tools to fully integrate a farm to school initiative in the district.
