Students plant herbs for sustainability and their campus food service.
Otterbein students in conjunction with Bon Appetite Food Service have begun an potted herb garden to plant the beginning seeds of sustainability. In the tripartite model of Sustainability; communities, economies, and the environment work hand in hand together to live in equal harmony.
This garden is an example of this model. The community- the Otterbein students- grow the plants for the meals they'll eat. This lowers the price of meals because food does not have to be shipped into Westerville city.
