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!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Jenn Halpin came today and gave a presentation about the Dickinson Farm program. It was a GREAT presentation and I think it really got everyone excited about our gardens here. She was here all afternoon for visits and meetings. Here’s what we did:
First, Jenn H. arrived and gave a brown bag presentation in Hugel 103.
Then, we had lunch with Professors Dave Brandes, Art Kney, Andy Smith and Annette Diorio at Gilberts for a Q & A for them!
Then, we had a meeting with Dining Services, including Joe Binotto and Bob Meyer where we talked about serving vegetables in the dining halls.
Finally, we met with garden team students interested in helping starting the garden for more Q&A.
It was a great learning experience and we’re so grateful Jenn H. came and gave us advice! Now we’ll have to go out there and visit sometime!
