Hello all!
If you’re visiting this website, I’m sure you’d be interested in coming out to some of our programs and events for EARTH WEEK 2010!! A lot of them are specifically about the garden and local food! 🙂
Here’s the schedule:
You are welcome to attend any and all of these events!
For more information, see our website: Earth Day.Org
We’ll be visiting the garden at 4PM on Wednesday as part of the tour and I’ll be presenting about it on Friday at noon for the Brown Bag on Campus sustainability.
Hope to see you there!!!!! And Happy Earth Week!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Hey everyone!
I’ve been working hard to update the website. Please check it out if you’re interested. You may find the FAQ section particularly helpful!

Hey all,
Two exciting things: the garden project has been covered by local TV shows twice this year!
On Monday, April 12th at 8:30PM we’ll be on channel WFMZ 69 on the Navigating your Life show. Myself, Mickey Adelman, Professor Veshosky, and Jason Seigel were interviewed for the Going Green Earth Day special.

On Earth Day, April 22nd, we’ll be on the show Tempo at 7 :30 and 11:00PM on PBS channel 39. Professor Wilson and I were interviewed and Bryan Hendrickson helped out too.

I know of two great seed providers:
High Mowing Seeds
I’d recommend these guys because they’re a small, friendly business.
Available online, through catalog or at Reeder Farm Store.
Seeds of Change
Reliable, certified organic seeds.
Available at Wegmans, online, catalog, and I’m sure there’s other locations too.
Any more recommendations or locations? Post them here!
This beautiful collage was made by Denise Galarza Sepúlveda (in plots #28 and 29). She tried to include an image from every garden space in the 2009 season. Click on the image to enlarge it.
Hello gardeners,
The moment you’ve been waiting for has arrived. 🙂 We are now accepting reservations for the community garden for the 2010 growing season!
Click here to get the form: http://sites.lafayette.edu/organicgardening/community-garden-forms/
Please return your form and payment to box #9456 Farinon Center. If you have any preferences about location, make sure you write it on the form. Also, if you’d like to share a plot and are looking for another family, you can post that info here or email me and I’ll try to get you in contact with others (leap@lafayette.edu).
Hello gardeners!!
I hope you’ve had a wonderful winter and are ready for another great season!
If you are interested in having a community plot, the application forms will be available soon, but are not yet available.
I will post them to this website, send them to previous plot-owners, and send out a campus-wide email. Those who had plots last year will have first priority on their plots again this year.
I will be in touch soon!
