Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program
Fact Sheets
The Making the Connections for Minnesota-Grown Fresh Fruits and Vegetables pilot project worked with three Minnesota School Districts and their suppliers to increase the purchase of local fresh fruits and vegetables in the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP) and to educate students and their families about the benefits of Minnesota grown produce. In this section, four fact sheets will help your school or farm connect Farm to School with the FFVP.
- An Overview of the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program for Minnesota Schools and Farmers (591 K PDF)
- Connecting Farm to School and the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program: A Farmer’s Guide (1.2 MB PDF)
- Best Practices and Themes from Produce Suppliers (1.3 MB PDF)
- Best Practices and Themes from Foodservice Directors (1.5 MB PDF)
