The New Hampshire Farm to School (NH FTS) Program is designed to connect local farms and farm products to New Hampshire classrooms and cafeterias by integrating agricultural production, school food procurement, and school curriculum. The goal is to develop a healthy, community-based, community-supported school food system. As parents you are in a unique position to help integrate those components mentioned above into your child’s everyday life and by sharing in your child’s Farm to School experience.
Here's how you can get involved!
- Find out if your child's school is participating in the NH FTS Program.
- Attend PTA or school board meetings to ensure that the NH FTS Program is discussed.
- Talk to other parents about the Program.
- Make a meal or snack using NH products for your child's class.
- Ask for NH-produced foods at your local retail outlets and restaurants.
- Use NH-produced foods at home.
- Bring your child to a local farm, orchard, farmer's market, the NH Farm Museum or the Remick Country Doctor Museum and Farm.
- Talk with your child about the importance of caring for our environment.
