More thoughts about the food forest

    - Carissa:  I really enjoyed class and our field trip to the food forest last week. I’ve learned so many things about our campus that I never knew. I think it’s great that there are plants, such as the cocoa plum right on campus for students to snack on. I also really like the bike fixing stops. They will definitely come in handy and encourage more students to ride their bikes. The all organic food forest was great; I couldn’t believe that all of that was grown by students in as short as two years! It was incredibly impressive and interesting.

    - Victoria:  With the exception of miserable weather we are having and trudging through an over grown forest, I very much going to the food forest. Not having known that there are edible plants and food all around us, gives me a comfort to know that not all is lost if stranded on campus or even in the woods. It's good to be aware of your surroundings in case of an emergency. Plus, I haven't seen so many bikes in one area, and it's great to see students using other forms of transportation---less likely that you will get hit by a car by them. Quite an awesome trip and I can't wait for the others.
