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.

Odds and ends

So many new posts since I left for my conference last week! When I came home, I found a fridge full of strawberries. My daughters and husband went back to Ambrose and picked more. :  )

We need to stake the tomato plants ASAP. The vines are touching the ground which is bad news. I will try to find time today to go find some suitable stakes. If any of you have time to do this, let me know and I'll take it off of my list.

Those of you who will be around this summer and want to help keep the garden going, post here.  I'll be around through June, but I'll likely take a few weeks off in July.
