Abstract: This thesis explores equity, justice, and dignity in relation to young children’s access to equitable and fresh food. This thesis study attempts to answer the question of why farm to school programming is not more widely implemented. Another question addressed in this thesis is that of what barriers prevent children from having access to fresh, local produce. In-depth interviews with childcare directors participating in Farm to Early Care programming were conducted, coded, and analyzed with NVivo software. Through this process, eight obstacles were identified to carrying out this type of programming. Conclusions drawn define a need for support to be given to early care centers in order for them to continue operating and participating in fruitful programs.
