A brief description of the institution’s sustainability partnerships with the local community:

Green Alternatives and the Five Points Community Farm Market partnered with ODU for the Hampton Roads Sustainable Living Fair in February 2011. http://studentaffairs.odu.edu/osal/community/sustainablelivingfair.shtml.

Five Points Community Farm Market partners with ODU on the Community Supported Agriculture @ ODU program. CSA @ ODU allows ODU and its local community to connect with the CSA program at Five Points Farm Market on campus. Every Friday, Five Points delivers ODU subscriptions to the Webb Center and from 4pm to 6pm, Aramark hosts a social. The social allows subscribers to pick up their produce, enjoy appetizers and beverages, get recipe suggestions, and mingle with Aramark and local chefs, as well as others who are interested in sustainable food.
