Countdown to the 2023 USDA Farm to School Census

In fall 2023, USDA will field the Farm to School Census, collecting information from school food authorities (SFAs) on their use of local food in school meals and participation in farm to school activities in school year 2022-23. Each SFA will receive a unique link to their own online survey portal this October. Now is a great time for SFAs to begin preparing to complete the Census by exploring the Farm to School Census Partner Resources webpage; there, SFAs can find useful tools including a Farm to School Census Sample Survey, a Preparation Worksheet, FAQs, and a Checklist for Success.
