​Farm to CNP Reimbursement Grant A​llowable and Unallowable Items​​​

Beginning in the 2025–2027 grant biennium, the list of items allowable for reimbursement is updated to more closely align with the core goals of the grant: to increase the purchase of Oregon-grown and Oregon-processed foods, and to enhance the variety of these foods offered in school meals. These changes are intended to support Oregon’s agricultural economy while complementing existing meal programs with local products that may not typically be part of standard menus.

Starting July 1, 2025, pizza products, tortillas, and tortilla chips will no longer be eligible for reimbursement through the Farm to CNP Reimbursement Grant.

Pizza products include, but are not limited to:

• Pizza (whole or slices), pockets, sticks, bites, crust, dough, etc.

Tortilla products include, but are not limited to:

• Hard and soft shells, wraps, chips, etc.
