A brief description of the postconsumer food waste composting program:
Through our Hotel Restaurant Tourism Management (HRTM) program we have a cafe where the students learn to prepare food and serve. Food from the plots supplies vegetables to the Agriculture College "100 West Café", composting the leftovers, and using the compost to enrich the soil in the SCFL veggie plot.
