Our Purpose

Our mission is... To cultivate a strong Farm to School program in the Portsmouth School District by focusing on personal, community, and environmental wellness through education, as well as growing and procuring healthy, fresh, and local foods for our classrooms, cafeterias, and consciousness.The CLIPPERS Farm to School Program’s long-term vision would be carried out in 10 years time. By this time we aim to own a vibrantly interactive farm to school program that has provided Portsmouth district graduates with a comprehensive experience and education that positions them to partake in farm to table efforts as healthy, thoughtful, responsible, and contributing citizens anywhere they land.
