The third session of the FARM Fig for Spring 2019 was held on May 21, 2019.  The primary focus of this meeting was to explore the possibility of a link course with the KBCC Farm.  There was a link course in the past but there has not been one for the last few semesters.  The proposal was to link Intro. to Sociology with Health and Nutrition.  After a preliminary discussion with Kieren Howard it was recommended that SCI7000 (The Science of Nutrition) was more suitable as it is a required course for a number of majors and Health and Nutrition is an elective which may not always fill.  We also discussed a link with HS-6000 Urban Agriculture but that class is also not a required course for any major.  Jennifer Mitchell will continue to explore options for Spring 2020.

Professor Caravello shared that the Urban Agriculture class is scheduled to run in the Fall of 2019 and asked that all spread the word to students.

There was also a brief discussion of combining the FARM and FOOD Figs for FALL 2019.  This will be further discussed and reviewed with KCTL.
