Lobo Gardens is envisioned as a learning laboratory project that would be planned, managed, planted, and harvested to benefit organizations who provide food to the state’s families in need. Used as an interdisciplinary and multi-institutional effort, Lobo Gardens will eventually involve numerous departments and schools on north and main UNM campus as well as other university partners. The garden may also serve as a learning site for younger school students (K-12) and an opportunity to participate in mentoring and pipeline experiences with university students.
