The Trinity University Community Garden outside the Storch building may not seem fancy, but has a significant purpose.
The garden is just one of the projects that are in the work as Trinity University embraces changes that would allow the university to run and grow in a more environmental friendly and sustainable way.
The garden has seen tremendous growth in past years, both in plants and popularity. “Other colleges and universities have begun to make use of urban space in the interest of sustainability and energy saving practices,” says garden director and senior student Nathan King. “We hope to use the garden as a vehicle to bring sustainability to the forefront.”
