A series of two meetings were held for Penn State faculty and staff on June 4, 2014 and June 23, 2014. After attendees heard an overview of the proposed student farm and Sustainable Food Systems Minor, most of the meetings were spent generating and sharing ideas about the farm and minor. Both meetings were well-attended, with around 25 people at each, and excitement was high as people envisioned how the farm and minor could support and enhance their teaching, research or outreach. Notes from each session are available here:Notes from FacultyStaff Mtng 6.4.14 and Notes from FacultyStaff Mtng 6.23.14.
Faculty and staff share ideas for the farm and minor from their small group discussion. Thanks everyone for coming and sharing your passion and ideas!
