Ken Morse is the coordinator of Maine Farm to School Network. He grew up and worked on a family apple orchard in Waterford, Maine which produced about 60,000 bushels a year.  Ever since his 20s, Ken has been engaged in community organizing, mostly around food. For years, he helped organize food co-ops, and worked at FedcoWarehouse helping to distribute food around the state. More recently Ken has directed Healthy Oxford Hills, a community health coalition in western Maine. For 5 years, he’s been the Maine Rep to the National Farm to School Network, and helped organize the Maine Farm to School Work Group which last year gave birth to the Maine Farm to School Network, which Ken coordinates.  He is passionately devoted to recreating local and regional food systems, and serves on the Leadership Team of Farm to Institution in New England and as Coordinator of the Maine Network of Community Food Councils.
