Does the institution have an on-campus garden where students are able to gain organic farming and/or gardening experience?:
A brief description of the garden:
The Yale Farm provides a place where students, faculty, staff, and New Haven community members can come together to learn about the connection between land and food. The Farm, a 15-minute walk north of the Old Campus, hosts workshops, seminars, volunteer workdays, and tours for local schools. Working in this four-season market garden teaches the principles of sustainability and the practices of sustainable agriculture.
