DEM Supports RI Farm to School with Latest Grant Award

November 1, 2018

The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (DEM) is promoting growth in our local farm economy by awarding a total of $276,614 in grants to be invested in specialty crop production and sales in Rhode Island.

We are proud to be one one of six recipient organizations, and are grateful for the opportunity this funding will allow us to expand the educational component of our RI Farm to School program through farm- and classroom-based educational opportunities for both students and school nutrition professionals.
