East Hartford Public Schools is not seeking new Corps Members for the 2025-2026 term.

East Hartford Public Schools is an urban district with about 7,000 students. East Hartford Public Schools employees work to deliver a high-quality learning experience for EVERY CHILD, EVERY DAY. The district’s Food Services Department (run by Sodexo Food Service Management Company) oversees the FoodCorps programming, and ensures that all students are well nourished and ready to learn. The department has been improving and expanding their farm to school programming over the past few years, especially following district representatives who attended the prestigious Northeast Farm to School Institute in Vermont. The city of East Hartford is located just outside of Connecticut’s state capital, and is comprised of about 51,000 people, and is an urban community with a focus on community engagement, anti-hunger initiatives, and community gardens.

The FoodCorps CT cohort is part of a much larger network of organizations and agencies dedicated to farm-to-school work, including, but not limited to: the University of Connecticut, CT State Department of Education, CT Department of Agriculture, CT Department of Public Health, Common Ground, CT Farm to School Collaborative, Keney Park Sustainability Project, Brigaid, New England Dairy, and New Britain ROOTS.
