Hancock County 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: The proposed project will span two years and will focus on the Indiana Farm to School Network, the Hoosier Harvest Market, Greenfield‐Central Community Schools, and the 38 other school corporations in Hancock and surrounding counties. The goals of this project are to help schools find and procure local food by developing an understanding of the opportunities for farm to school in this region of Indiana, with special consideration given to the feasibility of a virtual food hub, and to use a strong, focused network of farm to school partners to establish farm to school programs throughout the state
