Resources

We work hard to make the connections between farmer and food service provider a little bit easier, and to get kids excited about the experience of eating food from CT Farms. Below you will find resources that we have put together with support and advice from farmers, educators, and food service providers.

Order the Put Local On Your Tray Recipe Book with over 35 food service ready recipes to help you serve local.

This interactive resource maps farms across the state that have demonstrated their ability and willingness to connect with schools.
