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.

Ambrose Farms Field Trip Details

We are going to meet out at the farm between 2-2:15. It is a good way from campus, so give yourself time. I have promised rides to two students and have room for one more. If you need a ride, please comment on this post so we know. There is no assigned parking, but I'll be parking in the u-Pick area. We'll hang out, maybe pick some strawberries or admire the crops until Pete or Babs can meet with us.

Speaking of which, the Strawberry U-Pick is open. If you like strawberries, bring some cash! I believe Babs said they are $2 per lb. They are delicious!

Here is a link  for directions.

    Hey there! I'm not able to take people there today, but I can take people back downtown if it's more convenient for others.
