"Spring Valley Student Farm exists to foster meaningful student learning, engagement, collaboration, and camaraderie around environmental and sustainability issues. As an extension of the EcoHouse Living Learning Community, Spring Valley Student Farm provides students the opportunity to act on their interest in sustainable agriculture through organic farming. Spring Valley Student Farm allows students to gain practical knowledge and skills through experiential learning while simultaneously modeling a closed loop food model in which organic produce is grown on campus for UConn Dining Services. Spring Valley Student Farm aims to be a place where students, faculty, staff, and Storrs-Mansfield community members can come together to learn about the connections between land, food, and people."
Volunteer this upcoming Spring 2016 semester on our Friday Volunteer Days!
