AFSC New Mexico’s Farm to School project is an effort to create a replicable model for school food procurement that supports local producers for sourcing fresh, healthy produce for school children. The project was initiated to direct public funds to schools to purchase food produced by local farmers, prioritizing beginner farmers in training.
