Dining Services Farm 2014 Annual Report

The Dining Services Farm (DSF) is a collaboration between Virginia Tech Dining Services, The Department of Horticulture, and the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS). The DSF began in 2009 as a small garden at Kentland Research Farm to provide experiential learning opportunities for students in the Civic Agriculture and Food Systems Minor and grow fresh produce for Dining Services. The mission of the DSF is to promote sustainable agricultural practices and community food systems by serving as a resource for education, research, and outreach for Virginia Tech and the Blacksburg Community.
