Garden of the Month
Gardening is no small feat; it takes exceptional care and dedication to cultivate a yield no matter how big or small. Thus, once a month the Family Student Housing Garden Leadership Team (the Garden Coordinators and the Assistant Complex Coordinator) will choose one garden plot per month as our "Garden of the Month." Every other month will switch off from which garden the "Garden of the Month" is chosen, therefore six from Storke and six from West Campus. The chosen "Garden of the Month" will receive a gift card to encourage continuous exceptional gardening. We hope this encourages gardeners to put the work into their plots and receive recognition for their dedication and ultimately foster community building within the gardens.
What the "Garden of the Month Looks" Like
Typically the "Garden of the Month" shows passion and excitement through their plot. The FSH Garden Leadership Team does not have many criteria in selecting the "Garden of the Month" but the team is looking for finesse, a creative use of space, and must be environmentally savvy (after all we are attempting to reduce our carbon footprint!). Most of all we are looking for growth in both senses of the word; simply because it looks pretty is not enough, we want to see transformation. Good luck!
