What can be done to protect consumers and promote healthy lifestyle in Texas’ communities and schools?

Kim Olson

Agriculture Commissioner

Democrat

I will promote nutritious school lunches with training, education, and Farm to School, and will encourage participation in after-school and summer meal programs. My administration will promote local food access initiatives, such as workplace wellness, farmers’ markets, and retail incentive programs. And, we will address food safety standards by ensuring that our farmers meet the requirements while educating consumers on their role in handling and preparing safe, healthy foods.
