About UVFTS
The Upper Valley Farm to School Network is a group of farmers, teachers, parents, students and community members working to integrate local farms and food into school cafeterias, classrooms and communities in Vermont and New Hampshire’s Connecticut River Upper Valley.
The UVFTS supports farm to school programs in a variety of ways:
- Helping schools to initiate new FTS programs by conducting FTS Assessments
- Working with schools on particular objectives, including: using local food in the cafeteria, growing school gardens, integrating food and farm themes into the curriculum, organizing and fundraising
- Hosting forums for FTS leaders on specific topics
- Gathering and disseminating successful tactics and stories from and for FTS coordinators in the region
