It was a hot one, but the Gulf Scholars came to work (and discuss the nature and ethics of service learning)!

Many thanks to Prof. Hagood and the rest of the team for coming out and revitalizing the U Pick garden. So many good things to come there!

What a year!

We’ve produced more food and gotten it to more mouths with our Community Supported Agriculture and Free Harvest Stand programs (2007 lbs!), composted tons of food waste (~40,000 lbs!), expanded our educational reach to include new classes and majors (51 classes, 16 majors), hosted and participated many events on and off campus (63!), strengthened our ecological resilience and infrastructure, supported the college’s recruitment and advancement programs, and provided life-changing professional experiences for 26 student employees!

Phew! Couldn’t have done it all without the best crew and the best Farm Manager, Maggie!

Is it time for summer yet??
