A brief description of the garden:

Santa Clara University has two gardens, both of which use organic gardening techniques. The Forge is half-acre garden, one block from the SCU campus, and is a project of Bronco Urban Gardens (BUG). BUG aims to teach sustainability while providing a place where members of the SCU community can grow food together.

The Owl Clover Garden is a small organic garden on campus (behind the Commons on Kennedy Mall), in which students can work.
