A brief description of the IPM plan(s) :
The campus has proactive planning for grounds maintenance. The fundamental concept is that healthy plants are resilient plants. They use 3" mowing heights wherever possible, creating healthier grass. They use compost tea and mulch produced on campus to feed trees and plantings. Local experts are called in (such as the local county extension agent) to help identify issues and determine treatment plans, if necessary. Chemicals are used as a last resort and in strictly limited and controlled circumstances.
