The Healthy Farms & Healthy Schools grant program educates kindergartners about the importance of healthy foods and the people who produce them here in Pennsylvania.

Any Pennsylvania school district, charter school or private school with a kindergarten program is eligible to apply for Healthy Farms & Healthy Schools funds. A maximum of $15,000 may be awarded to applicants. A 25% match is required and can be monetary or in-kind expenditures. The deadline to apply is in June.

The department can assist schools with field trip and assembly opportunities as part of the Healthy Farms & Healthy Schools program.

Schools receiving Healthy Farms & Healthy Schools grants are invited to take advantage of the opportunity to include KJ Wagner and her music in their educational programming. KJ's participation in Healthy Farms & Healthy Schools events is being provided at no cost to grant recipients.
