Farm to School (F2S) efforts have grown across all 50 states (See National Farm to School Network) and has been growing stronger in Hawaii throughout the past decade. Nonprofit driven initiatives have launched programs specific to island communities.  State governmental interest in supporting F2S connections, and Federal information and financial support through the USDA’s F2S Program have supported a number of Hawaii F2S Initiatives.  Key Hawaii F2S programs include:

• Hawaii Farm to School and School Garden Hui (“HUI”)
• Grow Some Good (Maui)
• Hawaii Agricultural Foundation – Veggie U Curriculum
• Hawai’i Association of Independent Schools – Grow Hawai’i
• Kōkua Hawaiʻi Foundation – ʻĀINA In Schools
• Mālama Kauaʻi
• Pacific Region (PREL) – Successful Early Eco-Literacy Development (SEED)
• Sustʻāinable Molokai
