Florida Farm to School Conference
Explore Our Agenda
This year, we are embracing our theme of Cultivating Connections to increase students’ access to fresh Florida commodities in our schools, offer healthier meal options for Florida’s children and get students involved with nutrition and agriculture education through school garden activities.
Our agenda will reflect the tools you need to participate in and promote Florida Farm to School through the three pillars: School Gardens, Agricultural Education and Procurement.
Check out our Schedule-at-a-Glance and stay tuned for the full 2025 Farm to School Conference Agenda.
Join us for a one-of-a-kind experience by coming on one of our Conference farm tours.
Attendees will have the opportunity to visit local farms, hear directly from farmers and engage in hands-on agricultural activities.
Stay tuned to claim your spot.
Please note, only 2025 Farm to School Conference attendees can attend the tours.
