Welcome!

Welcome! This is the beginning of our interface with the larger community in the hopes of affecting a positive change in what our children know about food, and thus, their eating behavior. It's projected that sinking some of the school food service dollars (NYS-wide equals a total budget of more than $16 billion/year) into local economies will help sustain small-mid size farms that comprise our local/regional food supply systems. As part of the larger "Farm to Table" concept, we in the Schoharie Valley area in NY State, are trying to do our part in a region once known as the "Breadbasket of the Revolutionary War". Please visit often and sign up for the RSS feed so you don't miss a beat! We will monitor both local and national progress in the effort to make purchasing local foods a standard practice for schools. Thank you!
