Feed Our Future: Local Foods for Growing Minds began as a local farm to school effort in Northeast Ohio to inspire local school districts and households to promote healthy, local foods. Over the past year, Feed Our Future has expanded its presence to reach both a regional and national audience, partnering with other like-minded organizations to ensure that school aged children have choice for local foods and also have opportunities to engage with the local food system within their school community.
In partnership with the Early Ages Healthy Stages coalition, Feed Our Future is currently exploring ways in which its model can be expanded to support early education.
