Edible Campus

edible campus plantersAs part of campus development, planters have been planted with herbs and other edible plants to create an Edible Campus, bringing the Hungry for Change allotment in Brookfield onto main campus. Edible Campus planters are placed around Centenary Square, with fruit trees near the Bennett and Physics Buildings. Students helped to plant herbs and fruits in planters that staff and students are free to take and use.
