National Farm to Early Care and Education Provider Survey

In 2021, the National Farm to School Network and MSU Center for Regional Food Systems surveyed early care and education (ECE) providers across the country to better understand current initiatives, motivations, and challenges in applying farm to ECE activities in early care and education settings. More than 2,900 providers in 26 states and Washington, D.C., responded and shared the benefits and challenges of connecting young children to healthy, local foods, gardening, and food and agriculture education. This data was analyzed and published in 2022.
