San Diego Unified School District is not seeking new Corps Members for the 2025-2026 term.

San Diego Unified School District is a leader in Farm to School efforts in the nation. SDUSD’s Farm to School programming started in 2010 with three goals in mind. The first is local procurement, meaning we make our best efforts to serve food from locally sourced farms and companies. SDUSD participates in Harvest of the Month, providing fresh, seasonal, and local produce to students through salad bars every Wednesday. SDUSD also believes in and participates in the “California Food for California Kids” campaign through the Center of Ecoliteracy wherein school meals are sourced entirely from CA. The second goal is around the impact of nutrition education. Delicious and nutritious meal choices go hand in hand with the student education, as well as faculty and parent education as well. Lastly, SDUSD believes in supporting our school gardens. School gardens are offered variety of programs including the Garden to Cafe program, which allows school garden grown produce to be served in the cafeteria salad bar, or the Youth Garden Stand program, which allows students to sell their school grown produce back to their community.
