Farm to Institution New England is a six-state network of non-profit, public, and private entities working to strengthen the regional food system by increasing the share of New England–grown and processed food served in institutions such as schools, hospitals, and colleges. Based in Hartland, Vermont, the organization collaborates across sectors to address barriers and improve access to locally produced food for end users in the region. Its work targets institutions seeking to incorporate more local products into their menus, bridging producers with schools, hospitals, and other facilities to support regional supply chains. Since its founding, the group has pursued research, policy guidance, and practical resources to facilitate local procurement, including coordinated projects and partnerships with academic and state entities. A notable recent development includes a partnership with the Center for Agriculture and Food Systems at Vermont Law and Graduate School to study policies governing the New England carceral food system. The organization operates within the food and beverage services landscape, focusing on local sourcing, processing, and network-building to advance regional self-sufficiency.
