Katy Jeter visited with Marysville Superintendent Darren Schroeder about the district’s new Farm to Plate Program, an initiative designed to connect students with the journey of food from local farms to their school cafeteria. Schroeder says the grant will help fund equipment upgrades and resources needed to expand hands-on learning opportunities, improve food preparation, and incorporate more locally sourced products into school meals. Students will benefit through enhanced nutrition education, agricultural experiences, and a greater understanding of where their food comes from, while partnerships with local farmers and businesses will strengthen community ties. In the long term, the program aims to promote healthy eating habits, support local agriculture, and create lasting educational opportunities for Marysville students.
