About the Project

The garden project has evolved through a collaboration of many people and sustainability projects working together with a common goal of creating a more environmentally-friendly campus.

So what is the garden project?!

This project is a combination of a community garden for members of the Lafayette community and a student farm for Lafayette students to grow vegetables in a sustainable way which will hopefully be served in dining halls.

Here’s a little information about:

1.) What we’re about: Our Mission

2.) A Timeline of our history,

3.) Other Campus Sustainability initiatives at Lafayette,

4.) And Similar Projects at other schools.
