The Center for Sustainable Development manages one of the main campus gardens called the U-Garden. These two raised garden beds are located next to Barnett Park at the intersection of St. Philip and George Streets. Here you can find fresh veggies, herbs and decorative plants year round. Please stop by and help yourself!
Our student interns maintain these garden beds and are always looking for help to water, harvest and plant. Please reach out to us at sustainability@cofc.edu if you'd like to join us in maintaining our garden space.
