Welcome to the Environmental Studies Capstone Course blog. Over the past decade, community interest in reclaiming control over food production and consumption has fueled a wave of food activism, what Sandor Katz calls"America's Underground Food Movements."

Participants in this course are taking part in the urban agriculture food movement. In addition to reading , discussing, researching and writing on urban agriculture, we are participating. We are planning and planting a garden on campus, forming allegiances with campus and community groups, and contributing to a more sustainable community.

gardenbed boxes

Allo everyone! the wood is back there and ready for some fresh coatin' :)
The dimensions will be something like 2 1/2 x 8 and this week we should see about borrowing tools and such to put it together. 
I'll be painting the boards in the sunshine behind the Sociology dept after classes tomorrow until I go into work, from 12 to 230ish. Come stop by and join in the fun if you're able! Or whenever you can, go by and throw some touches on them yourself! 
I am so excited about all this coming together.. and with such wonderful weather to work in!

  1. Great! I'm excited. Painting crew: I know I mentioned this on Thursday, but be sure to hide the lumber and painted boards behind the building near the HVAC. We don't want them to wander off. : )
