for a prize. Contact the Wellness Center for more information.
Weekly Recipes

Center Newsletter. Check out our Instagram for a brief preview of each week’s recipes!
What is a CSA? CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture, a program in which members buy a "share" (or a half share) of produce at the beginning of the season and then receive a basket of said produce every week of the season. For more information please visit their website.
How it works: Three times a week, members drive around town in their farm truck and collect vegetable and fruit scraps, egg shells, and coffee grounds from campus, local restaurants and coffee shops. This organic matter is then composted and used as a top quality soil amendment to grow their own veggies! For more information, please visit their website.
