Connecting Arizona’s schools, farms, and communities, the AZ Farm to School Network promotes access to fresh, local food in cafeterias while offering hands-on agricultural education. Through partnerships and resources, we support healthier eating habits, sustainable farming, and stronger local economies.

The National Farm to School Network is a nationwide movement dedicated to connecting schools with local food producers to provide fresh, healthy meals and enrich students' educational experiences. By fostering partnerships, promoting agricultural education, and supporting local economies, the network empowers communities to grow a healthier, more sustainable future for children across the country.

The Arizona Department of Education is dedicated to providing high-quality education for all students. Through the Farm to School initiative, the department promotes access to fresh, local food in school meals, supports hands-on agricultural education, and encourages healthier eating habits. By partnering with local farmers and communities, we’re cultivating a sustainable future for Arizona’s students while strengthening connections between farms, schools, and families.
