Learn about vegetable, fruit, herb, and grain production, greenhouse and solar food dehydration, compost, mushrooms, vermicomposting, and components of ecological food production (outdoor student presentations).
Help the students harvest the produce for donation to the campus Food Bank.
Learn about campus gardens and how they can be used for teaching and outreach on campus. Network with garden faculty and students with new ideas.
Hot coffee, cookies, and seed sprouting jars will be for sale to support the garden; herbal teas from student projects also for sale.
