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.

Field Trip to Ambrose Farms

We'll be posting meet-up information, driving directions and other information this afternoon. The basic plan is to go out to the farm and poke around until Pete or Babs can meet with us. I'm taking some cash and picking strawberries ($2 a lb, I believe) while I'm out there. Strawberries are my favorite and I've been very disciplined waiting to buy  locally grown berries this year.

    I'm super-excited! I'm definitely going to be bringing some cash too. ^_^
