Farm2School is part of the local-food and whole-food movements, in the same family as farmers’ markets and CSAs. There were fewer than ten Farm2School programs in 1997, and now there are more than 2,000, gaining traction in various communities because of alignment of the interests of farmers, schools, government, students, and the public at large. They address a grass-roots consensus on health promotion by eating better and how to sustain elements of the community.
