Thatcher Farm at Southern Adventist University

Thatcher Farm at Southern Adventist University Welcome to the FB page for Thatcher Farm located at Southern Adventist University. This is the FB page for Thatcher Farm at Southern Adventist University.

To give you a little bit of history about the farm. Several years ago a group of students started a small garden on campus. As these students graduated and moved on they were unable to find people to take over the responsibilities of gardening and so the land lay dormant for several years. Around 2011/2012 Mindi Wiygul started a new Major/Minor on Campus called Global Policy and Service Studies. O

ne of the classes that is required for this Major is Sustainability Studies. Otherwise know as the agriculture class. Students learn about agriculture in the US as well as agriculture in developing countries. The class takes place two days a week throughout the semester. One day being lecture based and the other day being hands on, working to produce crops for local restaurants and the Chattanooga Market. Keep checking this page often as it will be updated with information about what is being grown and when deliveries are made to area restaurants and the Chattanooga Market. If you are interested in leaning more about the garden or donating to help with expenses, please contact Seth Shaffer at 236-2792 or [email protected]
