Food Forest -1

Today was the first day of attending University Colloquium. We took a field trip to the on-campus garden called "The Food Forest." The Food Forest is a student run botanical garden located on the campus of FGCU. I learned many things while touring the food forest. We got to try a variety of leaves and berry's that grew inside this garden. One of the purposes of the food forest is to provide students with the opportunity to learn about different types of edible and useful species from all over the world that can be grown in South Florida. Food Forest is also a great opportunity to get service-learning hours and it also free for anybody to go into this garden and check it out.
