HWS Fribolin Farm offers opportunities to engage with our food system, the campus and our surrounding community. Programs include food and farm field trips, garden development, cooking demonstrations, food forums, service opportunities and ways consumers can interact with food, farmers, and food processing as they contemplate their place in our regional food system.
Since acquiring the farm in 2013, faculty and staff have incorporated the HWS Fribolin Farm into the curriculum and student experience in many ways. At least 10 professors have directly used the farm in their course work, with many additional students gaining experience at the farm due to co-curricular experiences, independent studies, work studies, and service opportunities.
HWS Fribolin Farm has classroom, meeting, kitchen, and growing project space.
