Student Garden Guide

 At Bon Appétit, we strongly support all students who grow their own food and learn how to cultivate the land in a sustainable manner. Recently there has been a significant increase in the number of student-run gardens and farms on college and university campuses. Bon Appétit chefs and managers at numerous colleges have been working with student gardeners by purchasing and serving the student-grown produce in the Bon Appétit cafés. Based on our experiences, we composed a Student Garden Guide to help students establish a successful relationship between their campus food service provider and their student garden. We hope this guide helps student gardeners bring more fresh, healthful, locally grown and harvested food to their college campuses around the country.
