Upland Unified School District
Upland Unified School District is not seeking new Corps Members for the 2025-2026 term.
The Upland Unified Farm to School Program embodies the district’s mission statement, ‘Every Single Student, Every Single Day’ by striving to ensure that every student is given access to a hands-on learning opportunity based on organic gardening, positive nutrition habits, and community building. The Farm to School Program works with individual school administration, teachers, and students to plan a school garden that will serve both the school’s and program’s goals, making it more likely to sustain a garden program on campus. Gardens across the district provide students with the opportunity to get outside and learn about the food system while also learning about nutrition and how to make good food choices. Additionally, the produce that’s grown in the school gardens can be incorporated into cafeteria recipes, meaning that the students have the unique opportunity to grow and harvest lettuce in the garden and then later eat that same lettuce at lunch.
