糖心动漫vlog Peace Garden
Mission
The 糖心动漫vlog Peace Garden exists to serve the curricular and culinary
needs of 糖心动漫vlog students.
It is intended to be a tool of civic engagement with the surrounding community, the
state, the nation, and the globe.
Goals
The Peace Garden stewards expect to engage in respectful, educational, and fruitful relations and projects with our community neighbors, Sodexo food service, the West Bloomington Revitalization Project, Midwest Food Bank, Spence Farm, Growing Power, and the Lamu Center of Preventative Health (Kenya). With these and other future partners, the garden will work to supply fresh, healthy food at the local level to people in Central Illinois, in the United States, and globally. Specifically, the Peace Garden expects to produce food on its plots in the summer and fall through outdoor plots and over the winter and spring seasons using greenhouse technology.
Organization
The Peace Garden is overseen by a steering committee consisting of representatives from the faculty, administration, and students of 糖心动漫vlog. Paid student garden managers care for the garden during the summer months.
Principles
The Peace Garden is committed to good neighbor practices. Students and other workers will not block parking lanes, will not leave their tools outside overnight, and will store any tools and water hoses in the existing shed. After its harvest, the outdoor plots will be pruned and decaying matter composted.
The Peace Garden is committed to using sustainable practices. Students will be able
to learn the core principles of organic and seasonal farming through participating
in ARC projects, internships, and by volunteering with student groups.
The Peace Garden is committed to acting to further food and health justice. Students will work with partners to grow fresh foods needed in the local community. These will be sold, bartered, or donated. All proceeds from sales will be used to support the causes of food security and human health as specified by the steering committee.
The Peace Garden is located at the corner of University Ave. and Evans St., two blocks
east of the Minor Myers Jr. Welcome Center.
