Strawberry field at the Ohio University garden.
The Food Studies theme presents a veggie sale on Tuesday, May 22, in Grover from noon to 2 p.m. in front of the Atrium on the first floor.
The regular Friday market is from 4 to 6 p.m. on May 25, at the Ohio University Plant Biology Learning Gardens on W. State St.
“If Fridays don’t work, you may stop by the farm from 10 a.m. to noon on week days to buy veggies. Interns will be there to assist you in harvesting what you’d like,” notes Kelsey Bryant. For more information or would like to place an order, contact her at kb578415@ohio.edu.
Proceeds from the sale help to fund summer internships for OHIO students interested in learning about local food systems.
