| VT | Signed into law 05/2006 | P-12 | Creates in the agency of agriculture, food and markets a local foods mini-grant program for the purpose of helping Vermont schools develop relationships with local farmers and producers. Allows a school, district, consortium of schools, or consortium of districts to apply for a grant of up to $15,000 to:
(1) purchase equipment, resources, and materials that will help to increase use of local foods in the school food service program;
(2) purchase items, including local farm products, that will help teachers to use hands-on educational techniques to teach children about nutrition and farm-to-school connections; and
(3) provide professional development and technical assistance to help teachers educate students about nutrition and farm-to-school connections.
Directs that priority be given to schools and districts in the early stages of developing farm-to-school connections and education and that are making progress toward the implementation of the Vermont nutrition and fitness policy guidelines. Directs the secretary of agriculture, food and markets to work with existing programs and organizations to create educational opportunities for farmers to help them increase their markets by selling their products to schools and state government agencies. Directs the commissioner of education to offer expanded regional training sessions for public school food service personnel and child care resource development specialists during 2007. Provides that training must include information about strategies for purchasing, processing, and serving locally grown foods, as well as information about nutrition, obesity prevention, coping with severe food allergies, and food service operations.
Requires the commissioner of education, secretary of agriculture, food and markets, and secretary of human services, on or before January 15, 2007, to jointly make recommendations to the senate and house committees on agriculture, institutions, and education and the house committee on human services on the following:
(1) Strategies the general assembly could adopt or encourage to increase use of locally grown foods in Vermont schools, regulated child care programs, and state agencies.
(2) Whether moving administration of the U.S.D.A. food distribution program (the food commodities program) from the agency of human services to another department or agency such as the department of education or the agency of agriculture, food and markets would improve integration of the program with efforts to include more fresh foods in general and Vermont-grown foods in particular and would result in more frequent delivery of foods in a timely fashion.
(3) Ways to improve the effectiveness of the local foods mini-grant program.
(4) Ways to improve the effectiveness of training for public school food service personnel.

| ME | Adopted 01/2006 | P-12 | The Department of Education is proposing amendments to Ch. 51 - Child Nutrition Programs in Public Schools and Institutions. The rule contains the requirements that supplement federal regulations pertaining to the National School Lunch Program, the After School Snack Program, the School Breakfast Program, and the School Milk Program. The rule requires funds from all food and beverage sales made at anytime on school property to accrue to the benefit of the school's non-profit school food service program; with exceptions.
Proposed amendments would allow, under local school board policy or policy established by Career and Technical/Center Cooperative Boards, a school, approved student organization, or program to benefit from the sale of foods and beverages sold at food sales, in school stores, and in vending machines, and for the sponsors of community events to benefit from the sale of food or beverages sold at the event. Amendments also clarify that a school, approved student organization or program may sell foods or beverages if consistent with the requirement that such sales not include foods of minimal nutritional value. The rule amends the current exception for the sale of foods and beverages by Career and Technical Education (CTE) centers or programs to be consistent with all exceptions in the rule which allow, by school board policy or Career Technical Education Region/Center cooperative board policy, the sale of food which include foods of minimal nutritional value as defined in the rule but limits this exception to the CTE Culinary Arts Program.
