Community Engagement

There are many ways to get involved in agroecological food systems and urban ecology. We strongly encourage students to get hands-on experience in the field. Not only will it teach you much but you will foster a deep connection with the biological systems that provide the nutritious foods you depend on.

 

Volunteer

Learn how you can participate and grow along side the plant life here on campus and within our local region.

Tours

You can schedule your very own group tour of the first certified organic facility on Texas university grounds.
