Vermont Funds Local Food in Schools

Vermont just dumped a million bucks into farm-to-school programs—34 grants hitting schools, childcare centers, and nonprofits to get kids hands-on with local food, boost nutrition, and support farmers. Funds are split into four key areas: building gardens and outdoor classrooms, upgrading kitchen gear, launching CSA programs for kids, and feeding every school through food hubs. This initiative, now in its 17th year, just got a half-million-dollar boost this round—with applications opening in September. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
