Description
With this minor, you will learn about sustainable agriculture from humanities, social science, and natural science perspectives; explore the production and distribution of food on field trips, in the campus gardens, and in the classroom; and will put that knowledge into practice during a field-based practicum course with local farmers and community partners. The environmental impacts of both conventional and sustainable agriculture is a recurrent theme throughout the minor.
