Organic Farm - tulips, kale and tomatoes!
Today I was reminded of yet another reason I love springtime so much… This week, our campus’ Organic Farm announced that they will begin selling tomato starts again. I’m very excited to buy another one of these and get some fresh, organic tomatoes growing in my yard at home. Being able to walk just outside my front door for fresh produce whenever I want is such a luxury! I love that I work at a place with its own farmer’s market for me to utilize. Every Tuesday and Thursday they are out in front of the College Activities Building selling produce, flowers, eggs, veggies and all kinds of other good stuff for us to enjoy. The students who learn about sustainable farming here also learn about the business aspect of the entire process which really sets our program apart from many others. It truly is integrated learning at its best! If you’d like more information on our Organic Farm, check out this website: http://www.evergreen.edu/cell/organicfarm.htm.
