Beginning in 2016, the Vermont Department of Health surveyed Vermont schools to help the Vermont Farm to School & Early Childhood Network better understand where Vermont schools overall are in relation to the Network's goals:
By 2025, 75% of Vermont Schools will lead the cultural shift to a values-based food system that engages 75% of our students in integrated food system education; community-based learning; nourishing universal meals; and the experience of self-efficacy; purchasing at least 50% from a socially just and environmentally and financially sustainable regional food system.
The report spans findings from the 2016-17 school year. Access by:
