Nourish Farms , the last organization in Sheboygan County focused on food education, is facing significant challenges as state and federal funding cuts impact their ability to partner with local schools.
"Normally, I don't eat vegetables, but when I bake them into things, they're delicious," said one student participating in Nourish Farms' programs.
This nonprofit in Sheboygan Falls educates the community, especially local students, on food—from seedling to harvest, to helping them make healthy choices and prepare nutritious meals.
"It's critical that kids have familiarity with foods. It builds healthy formation around what we do three times a day, ideally," said Ryan Laswell, Executive Director of Nourish Farms.
