The Youth and Family Empowerment (YFE) Division of the City of Seattle Human Services Department (HSD) is seeking applications from agencies interested in program coordination and food procurement for the Seattle Farm to Preschool Program (formerly known as Seattle Farm to Table). Seattle Preschool Program student picks up his family’s Good Food Bag. In 2010, the Seattle Farm to Table partnership was formed to make local food more affordable to Seattle-based home-delivered meal programs, senior congregate programs, and childcare centers. This tax now almost fully funds Seattle Farm to Preschool. Recent rising food costs due to price inflation have contributed to increased food disparities among Seattle residents.
