The Music Forest
A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome that outlines how credit criteria are met and any positive measurable outcomes associated with the innovation:
To celebrate Arbor Day, about 40 musicians were “planted” in various spots around the half-acre Food Forest botanical garden and performed continuous sets from 3-6 p.m. as soloists or ensembles. Attendees were entertained by music performed by students inspired by nature and also learned about the materials and sources of the instruments. Guided tours streamed through the winding paths shaded by fruit trees and other native vegetation, informing visitors about the permaculture design and FGCU’s commitment to environmental sustainability.
