It supports your local community

  • When you buy locally produced food, the money you spend stays in Tasmania to support our farmers and communities.
  • Feature local produce on your food service menu so that the students can clearly see where their food comes from. If you are a part of the SmartFood Program this could be a whole school approach activity that can be put forward as part of your accreditation.
  • Provide example activity for this.
