Experience a week-in-the-life at our campus farm featuring berries, vegetables, herbs, flowers and honey bees. Using our two-acre diversified urban farm there will be opportunities to gain experience in plant propagation, soil and water testing and insect identification. Assist daily in the harvest and learn to prepare and preserve foods from the variety of crops. Learn to preserve fruits and vegetables, making jam, pickles and salsa. Extract plant dyes to tie-dye t-shirts and dry herbs to make soap. Dr. Noseworthy loves to cook and bake and the week will culminate in a farm to table lunch highlighting vegetables from the farm.
