Good Earth Student Farm

Good Earth Student Farm is a student-run organization where students, faculty, staff, and local community members can grow their own sustainable, naturally grown produce to aid in reducing food insecurity. Our harvest is also shared with the S.H.O.P. food pantry on campus. In the 2023 season (March-mid October), we donated over 3600 lbs. of fresh produce to the S.H.O.P. and harvested over 5500 lbs. in total!
