This urban farm is the classroom of Marine Affairs students, who manage and maintain the farm throughout their three years in the program. The farm adds comfortable air to the school and food for the community and acts as a great space for stormwater management of our harbor. Students use food scraps and waste from our mess hall to create compost to enhance this ecosystem. And there is even a picnic table in the center where students can sit and eat lunch. https://harborpolicy.org/
Students complete this task with the support of their partner, Earth Matter on Governors Island. https://earthmatter.org/
