One of the primary goals of the Edible Campus Program Student Farm is to grow fresh produce that can be distributed to the Associated Students Food Bank and to students in need. Since we will be distributing the produce broadly it was important for us to work closely with UCSB Environmental Health & Safety and UCSB Risk Management in order to ensure that the items that we grow and the practices that we follow are such that we can meet our distribution goals. For a full list of the food we have permission to grow, please visit this produce spreadsheet.
Some of the items that we are most excited about include:
