Garden Landscapes on the Ag Quad

Every year since 2001, students in “Creating the Urban Eden: Woody Plant Selection, Design, and Landscape Establishment” have taken on real-world projects by designing and installing gardens on campus each spring. Students get their hands dirty, literally and figuratively, as they design spaces to be enjoyed by the entire CALS community. Here at the entrance to Mann Library, the garden follows the Sustainable SITES guidelines, which assesses the sustainable design, construction, and maintenance of landscapes.
