The Furman Farm

Here at Furman, we have a small organic "farm" where we grow all sorts of good fruits and veggies, from kale to blueberries. Everyone is welcome to come out in their free time and volunteer. The manager, Bruce, loves the help and is happy to tell you all about the science behind everything we do. We have a really cool CSA that lets people enjoy our delicious food. A great thing about our farm is that we compost the food scraps from our dining hall and use them to fertilize our plants. Even the pest control methods we practice are eco-friendly, I used coffee grinds to get rid of ants. Who knew?! Here is a picture of the row of arugula I planted!
