Are you a Colorado farmer or rancher who's interested in joining the Farm to School program, but are unsure how? To help farmers sell nutritious foods direct to Colorado schools, Colorado Farm to School has set up a Producer Mentoring program.

WHY SELL TO COLORADO SCHOOLS?

Selling to schools is a great way for farmers to ensure a consistent level of sales and predictability about what to grow and raise. It also lets you offer local students the freshest, most nutritious meals possible.

HOW DO YOU JOIN?

New England Small Farm Institute (NESFI) is a land-based, non-profit organization, founded in 1978 by a local citizens' action group—Women in Agriculture, Food Policy and Land Use Reform—to encourage more sustainable regional agriculture.

We design, install and maintain attractive and productive edible gardens.  Grow your own real food!

Ultimately, our mission is to transform urban spaces into attractive, inviting, and resilient ecosystems.

Based in Boston, HomeHarvest also incorporates medicinal & ornamental plants, stone masonry, metal work, and carpentry into our creations.

Further, we educate about self-sufficiency, nutrient-rich produce, and the abundant rewards of holistic land stewardship.
