Throughout the summer Luther will be offering a wide range of cooking classes, tours, farm experiences and book discussions as a way to connect people, food and place.

The student farm assessment program works to connect Luther students with the farmers producing their food. Students meet producers and ask questions about production methods and farming techniques.

As an educational institution we value the pursuit of knowledge, idea sharing and opportunities for expanded horizons. To that end, we are beginning to offer more food-based educational opportunities for faculty, staff and students.

First-year students and their families are introduced to the college's sustainability ethic—and its great food—at the Luther Zero Waste Picnic during orientation in August.

The Luther Gardeners had a very successful 2012 growing season and were excited to share all they had accomplished. To do this they had events such as salad bowl days, basil giveaways, and a squash giveaway.
