Description

About

Edible Campus is at its core an experiment in community farming. As a society we aim to create an environment where students can learn, teach and exchange ideas about small-scale farming and sustainable practices. Working with GreenLancaster, we work to use sustainable, wholesome and effective practices to grow our garden.

 

The majority of work at EcoHub involves garden maintenance. We plan, plant and harvest our garden year-round and student volunteers are the key component that keeps the project alive. With numerous raised beds, a polytunnel, wildlife pond, and orchard we have a diversity of interests for you to engage in. We sell our produce at Central, the Farmer's Market in Alexandra Square, and we do Seasonal Veg Boxes over the summer. We also make jams and preserves out of the produce harvested at the EcoHub.

At our core, we want to give students the fundamental skills to build their own sustainable practices.
