Food for Maine's Future seeks to build a just, secure, and democratic food system which protects
Maine farmers and the environment from corporate control. We empower farmers and local communities
to define their local food systems, and promote sustainable local alternatives in schools and in the fields.

Healthy Schools Initiative

The Healthy Schools Initiative— a grassroots, decentralized organization—supports students, teachers, parents, staff, administrators, and concerned community members to promote healthy eating, school garden projects, and sustainable agriculture in the classroom.  We believe that a strong connection to a community’s food system is essential to promoting healthy students and healthy local farming communities.
