ACRES Student Farm

Agricultural Community Resources for Everyday Sustainability (ACRES)

ACRES Student Farm is a 1.8 acre vegetable farm that is community oriented, volunteer based, and student run. We grow our produce using sustainable methods and strive to support and promote local agriculture. The Student Farm additionally provides educational and research opportunities for the Laramie and University of Wyoming communities.

ACRES Greenhouse Project Fundraiser

Please consider supporting the ACRES Student Farm's Greenhouse Project fundraiser, and help us increase our capacity for sustainable production and hands-on agricultural education!
In order for ACRES to continue to grow, we need a greenhouse so that we can start seeds earlier in the spring before our all-too-short growing season begins. Not only will the greenhouse help us get the season off to an earlier start, but it will also increase yields and extend the growing season. We will even be able to work towards winter production. This increase in production will help make sustainably grown produce available to the community throughout the year. Additionally, the greenhouse will provide more opportunities for hands-on learning during the spring and fall semesters.
