Companion Research Guides

Welcome and Introduction

Discover campus and community resources for cultivating the art and science of gardening and urban agriculture! This guide has been created to bring together selected resources that speak to community gardening and urban agriculture--within the larger, interdisciplinary research interests that are food sovereignty, food systems and food security.

Topics of special interest within this guide also include: school gardening, horticultural therapy, as well as gardening for particular design or intent (such as gardening to attract pollinators or to filter runoff).

While the concerns of this guide have far-reaching implications, it has been the intent (primarily) to identify and to link to programs, projects, and educational tools from within our "neighborhood"--our institution, Wisconsin and the Midwest.
