Florida Farm Connect – For Schools
Buy School Foods from Local Farms
Florida Farm Connect is your one-stop platform for connecting with local farmers and producers who are ready to supply your school with Florida-grown commodities. Whether you’re looking to enhance your school meals or create hands-on learning experiences through farm visits, this interactive tool makes it easy to find the right partners.
What is a School Profile?
By creating your school profile, you’ll introduce your school or district to your local farmers, and share your commodity needs and opportunities to participate in field trips. Your profile also includes information about your locations, delivery preferences and other details that are useful to farms as they reach out.
School profiles help personalize the Farm to School movement and create a stronger connection between your school, local farms and your community.

What Schools are Saying About Florida Farm to School
“We know and we believe it is important to bring local foods to our students and to bring fresh food to our students. We know it is more nutritious, we know it’s great for the environment, and the best part is that we get to use our dollars to reinvest in our local economy which helps our farmers, our local businesses and the families that make up Hillsborough County Public Schools.”
