Faulkner County Urban Farm Workday

Students from Rachel Schichtl’s NUTR 3350 Community Nutrition class recently spent a workday at Faulkner County Urban Farm to help plant fruit trees. A total of 8 fruit trees and a blueberry bush were planted with funds from a Service Learning Grant the class received. The Faulkner County Urban Farm ( located behind the Faulkner County Library) provides nutrition and garden education to school aged children up to adults. Here in a few years children and adults alike should be able to enjoy figs, apples, pears, peaches, blueberries and more ! Great job students!
