Res 403) \u2013 sponsored by Senators Patrick Leahy (D-VT), Susan Collins (R-ME), Sherrod Brown (D-OH), and David Perdue (R-GA) \u2013 designating October 2019 as \u201cNational Farm to School Month\u201d. The National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition (NSAC) and National Farm to School Network (NFSN) jointly praised the effort to highlight the important relationship between farmers, schools, and our nation\u2019s children. The organizations, which work closely together to advance federal policies that further farm to school connections and the socioeconomic benefits that those relationships confer, also underscored the opportunity for Senators to further support these efforts by including the <em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Farm to School Act  (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.farmtoschool.org\/documents\/F2SAct2019_FactSheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Farm to School Act of 2019 <\/a><\/em>(S. 2026) and the <em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Kids Eat Local Act  (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/sustainableagriculture.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Kids-Eat-Local-6.13.19.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Kids Eat Local Act <\/a><\/em>(S. 1817) in the next Child Nutrition Act Reauthorization (CNR). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cThe National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition welcomes this strong showing of support from the Senate for national farm to school efforts,\u201d said <strong>Wes King, Senior Policy Specialist at NSAC<\/strong>. \u201cFarm to school partnerships are important opportunities for our youth to learn about food, agriculture, and how to respect and care for the land. That\u2019s not where the benefits stop, however. Farm to school programs also allow our nation\u2019s family farmers \u2013 many of whom are struggling due to lagging markets and unstable trade partnerships \u2013 to form lucrative business relationships with schools and school districts. These relationships are a win-win-win, providing crucial business opportunities to family farmers, fresh foods to public schools, and healthy meals and hands-on educational opportunities for students. We hope that this resolution signals that Senators are also ready and willing to support the <em>Kids Eat Local Act<\/em> in the upcoming CNR. The Act was <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/sustainableagriculture.net\/blog\/kids-eat-local-act-2019\/\" target=\"_blank\">introduced with bipartisan support earlier this year<\/a>, and would help make it easier for schools to source healthy food from local farmers, ranchers and fishermen.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cFarm to school activities &#8211; including kids eating, growing, and learning about local and just food &#8211; happen 365 days a year across more than 42,000 schools. \u201cNational Farm to School Month\u201d is a well-deserved time to celebrate the successes of these efforts and to raise awareness of the opportunity and need for more,\u201d said <strong>Chloe Marshall, Policy Specialist at the National Farm to School Network<\/strong>. \u201cWe applaud the Senate for recognizing the positive impacts that farm to school has in improving child nutrition, supporting family farmers and local economies, and building vibrant, more equitable communities. We urge the Senate to continue to invest in the well being of our nation\u2019s kids, farmers, and communities in the next CNR by strengthening the USDA Farm to School Grant Program with the <em>Farm to School Act of 2019<\/em>, which was <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.farmtoschool.org\/news-and-articles\/farm-to-school-act-of-2019-introduced-in-congress\" target=\"_blank\">introduced with bipartisan support<\/a> earlier this year. In addition, we also urge support for child nutrition programs that ensure every child has sufficient access to nutritious meals, including expansion of the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) and maintaining strong nutrition standards within these programs.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\">###<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><u>About the National\nSustainable Agriculture Coalition (NSAC)<\/u><br>\nThe National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition is a grassroots alliance that\nadvocates for federal policy reform supporting the long-term social, economic,\nand environmental sustainability of agriculture, natural resources, and rural\ncommunities.
