Summer 2024 Farm Courses

 

The sun is (sort of) out, the birds are chirping, and we’re on our way towards another exciting summer quarter! What better way to spend your sunny days than learning by doing out at the UW farm?

This summer, check out two amazing classes taught at the UW farm & Center for Urban Horticulture through the Program on the Environment. ENVIR 240, The Urban Farm, is a 5 credit class with no prerequisites where you’ll develop understanding of the connections between food production, human health, and sustainability. ENVIR 295 A, Urban Farm Practicum, is a 5 credit class designed for students who have either taken ENVIR 240 in the past OR who have experience (volunteer or paid) working on the UW farm or with another farm group. This advanced course will be hands-on during the busiest growing season, and you’ll learn how to plant, harvest, and run the farm’s CSA program.
