The Vermont Farm to School & Early Childhood Network invites you to gather with us at Bellows Free Academy in St. Albans to build connections with fellow Franklin County farm to school enthusiasts, find support for your efforts, share best practices, and access resources.

Join us for an evening of peer-to-peer learning and dig into opportunities to strengthen the farm to school movement in Franklin County. The agenda includes a unique opportunity to hear from a diverse panel of local farm to school experts. Come connect with your fellow community members for breakout discussion groups based on topics of collective interest. And, of course, there will be delicious locally sourced food and plenty of chances to mingle! 

All are welcome — we’re convening anyone who is interested in getting involved with farm to school programming in our region: school nutrition staff, teachers, farm to school coordinators, school administrators, farmers, students, families, and any interested community members are all invited!

Note: The gathering will be in the cafeteria of Bellows Free Academy in St. Albans and is accessible to all.  

RSVP

Participating organizations include: Healthy Roots Collaborative, The Abbey Group, and South Hero Land Trust.

This gathering is a program of the Vermont Farm to School & Early Childhood Network, with funding from the Vermont Agency of Education.
