Farm to School

In 2022, the JPM received the USDA Farm to School Edible School Garden grant, for implementation of edible school garden programs at two schools within the JPS district, C.V. Bush Elementary School and Washington Middle School.

​

In working with these schools, the JPM will continue to foster edible garden programs, as well as Farm to School initiatives, ensuring all children in the JPS district have a connection to our local food system!
