Features
Farms for Schools brings farm-to-school program management into one connected platform — from contacts and agreements to grants, projects, analytics, and beyond.
Directory and Contacts
A searchable directory of farms, schools, districts, and partner organizations. Maintain rich contact records with roles, phone numbers, and email addresses.
Agreement Management
Create and track farm-to-school purchase agreements between farms and schools or districts. Attach documents, track statuses, and manage contract timelines.
Agreement Workflows
Multi-step task workflows tied to each agreement. Assign tasks by role, track due dates, and receive automated reminders for late items.
Crop Catalogue
A shared catalogue of crops and varieties available across your network, with planting and harvest timing to align with school calendars.
Crop and Garden Management
Manage fields, rows, and plantings. Track growing status from planned to harvested, and connect produce to agreements and meals.
Price & Availability Lists
Generate school, wholesale, and farmstand price lists straight from your crop plans. Print formatted lists and receive orders from chefs and partner organizations.
Order Management
Place and receive produce orders between farms, schools, and chefs at the right price tier. Track orders from submitted to fulfilled, with sales constrained into future crop plans.
Honor-System Farmstand
Publish a farmstand price list and let customers scan a QR code to select items and pay by card on their phone — no staff required. Generate printable QR signs for the whole stand or individual products, with automatic inventory decrement on every sale. Available for both farms and school gardens.
Localization (English & Spanish)
The entire interface is available in both English and Spanish, with a one-click language switcher.
User Guides
Administrator-managed documentation library with downloadable guides to help your team get the most out of the platform.
Customer Service Ticketing
A built-in incident reporting system. Submit tickets directly from the platform, routed to the right support team by state.
