What is Farm to School Counts?

Farm to School Counts is Oregon’s official online platform for advancing farm to school programs statewide. As the digital home of the 10-Year Strategic Vision for Oregon Farm to School (2025-2035), this data-driven resource outlines five strategic goals designed to strengthen connections between schools, local farms, and food producers.

Farm to School Counts serves as a centralized hub for:

  • Tracking statewide progress toward farm to school goals
  • Sharing real-time data, research, and impact stories
  • Aligning efforts across public agencies, school districts, farmers, and nonprofit partners

Whether you're a policymaker, educator, grower, or community advocate, Farm to School Counts helps align collective action to build a more equitable, resilient, and locally grounded school food system in Oregon.
