UMD Farm video

Hi all!
For those of you who were at the Bulldog Welcome Week presentation today. As well as those who were not.  The sound was not playing properly.  As promised, here is the link to the You Tube video about the UMD farm made when it was just starting back up a few years ago.

More information will be available on future posts about the farm. 
It has grown so much from the time of this video.

Thank you to Randy Hanson, and many other staff, faculty and students who have seen the vision and put so much time, effort, sweat, and more into the Sustainable Agriculture Project.

The farm has given UMD dining services 4400 pounds of food last year served at UMD. It will be exciting to see where that number will reach at the end of the 2012/2013 school year.
