Does the institution have an on-campus garden where students are able to gain organic farming and/or gardening experience?:
A brief description of the garden:
After the Flood of 2008 the City of Waverly provided flood buyout property adjacent to the college property which has been adopted as the garden plot. The property is over 1/4 acre, which allows for expansion and growth, but current needs only require a 40ft x 60ft garden plot. We use organic practices to ensure the high quality food. Produce from the garden is used by the college’s dining services or donated to a local food bank.
