Episode 53 of Tip of the Iceberg Podcast features a conversation with three folks from Auburn University – Desmond Layne, head of the department of horticulture; Daniel Wells, associate professor of horticulture; and Glenn Loughridge, director of campus dining and concessions – about how students are growing produce in shipping containers for use in the university’s campus dining program.
They discuss how the partnership originated, what the response has been from students participating, how Auburn markets this hyperlocal produce on its campus, and much more.
