Item New Curricula for Undergraduate Food-Systems Education: A Sustainable Agriculture Education Perspective(2014-12) Jordan, Nicolas; Grossman, J.; Lawrence, Patrick G.; Harmon, Alison H.; Dyer, William E.; Maxwell, Bruce D.; Cadieux, K.V.; Galt, Ryan; Rojas, A.; Byker Shanks, Carmen; Ahmed, Selena; Bass, Thomas; Kebreab, E.; Singh, V.; Michaels, T.; Tzenis, C.New undergraduate degree programs that address food systems have appeared at a number of North American universities in the past decade. These programs seek to complement established food- and agriculture-related courses of instruction with additional curricular elements that build students’ capacity to address complex food-systems issues (e.g., food sustainability, security, quality, equity and justice) in the course of their work in food-related professions. Here, we examine these emerging food-systems curricula, building on our collective experiences developing food-systems degree programs at University of British Columbia, Montana State University, University of California-Davis and the University of Minnesota. We present the conceptual framework that underlies our efforts, based on the premise that our degree programs should help students build “systemic” capacities that complement disciplinary training provided by various specialization “tracks.” Thus, we intend for our graduates to have a dual preparation, in both a particular specialization, and in overarching systemic capacities that enhance their ability to address complex food-system issues. We assess our current curricula in light of our framework, and outline high-priority pathways for further development of these curricula.Item Towne's Harvest Garden and Community Supported Agriculture Program, Annual Report 2012(MSU Friends of Local Foods, 2013) Differnderfer, Anna; Reusch, Tim; Acker, Nic; Moyer, Candace; Gaston, Marcy; Holt, Charles; Harmon, Alison H.TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Summary...6 About Towne’s Harvest...8 Mission, Vision and Values...9 The Value of Towne’s Harvest Garden...10 Partner Analysis...11 2012 Plan of Operations and Organizational Structure...12 2012 Expenditures and Income...13 Towne’s Harvest Garden Layout...13 2012 Crop List...14 Student Involvement...15 Community Supported Agriculture Program...16 Student CSA...17 Food Bank Partnership...18 Campus Farm Stand...18 Towne’s Harvest Distribution Summary...20 President’s Luncheon...21 Publicity & Project Dissemination...22 Lessons Learned...23 2013 Proposed Plan of Operation...25 2013 Proposed Organizational Structure...26 2013 Predicted Expenditures and Income...27 Towne’s Harvest Annual Timeline...28 External Funding for Towne’s Harvest Garden...30 Towne’s Harvest On-going Goals & Progress...31 Towne’s Harvest On-going Goals & Progress...33 Appendix...34 APPENDIX THG Income 2012 | THG Expense Records 2012 | 2012 Crop Notes | Block and Row Crop Plan | 2012 Harvest Log: Certified Organic, CSA, and Food Bank | THG Staff Duties | 2012 CSA Member Survey Results | CSA Member Information | Towne’s Harvest Flyer; CSA Brochure; Community Food Truck Marketing Flyer; Student CSA FlyerItem Planting Seeds: Towne's Harvest Garden at MSU(2009) Jelenchick, Jaime; Harmon, Alison H.What’s the future of agriculture in Montana?
