SOU Farm Facebook page

It's not a big farm, but it's a significant farm.  Southern Oregon University cultivates a little more than five acres of land in the city of Ashland, in a plot called--not surprisingly--The Farm at SOU

It is a laboratory not just for agricultural techniques, but also for sustainability practices, so the land can be used over and over without harm.  Christopher Brown from The Farm visits to talk about practices and participants and the pavilion he designed for it.  

What he said at the end: There's a lecture on the pavilion on Wednesday, February 28th, in Medford.
