Children’s development is shaped by the world around them. According to Bronfenbrenner’s theory, children are influenced by direct interactions and the broader environment, which includes family, community, and society. This concept aligns with initiatives like farm-to-preschool programs. These programs forge connections between communities and local food sources, introducing gardening and nutritional education. This approach aligns seamlessly with Bronfenbrenner’s theory, creating a multi-layered learning experience and fostering children’s healthier eating habits. This review delves into how farm-to-preschool efforts enhance young children’s diets through the ecological model evaluation framework, encompassing health, education, economics, and the environment.
