Campus Food Forest

This thesis develops a cohesive outline to carry out a food forest project on the campus of Coastal Carolina University. The project was created by drawing upon informational interviews with representatives from other universities that have implemented campus sustainable agriculture programs, coupled with a photography project, campus workshops, and a survey of the CCU community to gather data to support the future implementation of food forest project on the CCU campus. A food forest is a 7-layer system of sustainable gardening that functions year-round and mimics the ecosystem and patterns found in nature
