What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill directs the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) to administer two pilot farm to school programs in rural school districts in which at least 65 percent of the pupils are eligible for a free or reduced-price lunch in the federal school lunch program. A farm to school program is a program that connects schools with nearby farms to provide children with locally produced fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, and other nutritious, locally produced foods in school breakfasts, lunches, and snacks; helps children develop healthy eating habits; provides nutritional and agricultural education; and improves farmers' incomes and direct access to markets.
The bill appropriates moneys to DPI to administer the programs and increases DPI's authorized positions by 2.0 GPR positions for that purpose.
