Meet our BMC Garden Coordinator, Ankitha Kannad! Feel free to stop by the garden at any time to harvest and/or help weed.
What
The Greens Garden Committee founded the Bryn Mawr Community Garden during the spring of 2010. Since then, we have been able to successfully grow a variety of fruits and vegetables such as lettuce, onions, spinach, corn, pumpkin, bok choy, squash, watermelon, turnips, celery, tomatoes, blueberries, and herbs.
Where
The Garden is located in the plot between New Dorm Dining Hall and the Wyndham parking lot.
When
The garden committee organizes harvesting and planting days each semester where students are encouraged to volunteer. For the Fall Semester, the garden work days are Wednesdays from 3 to 5 p.m. and Sundays from 3 to 4 p.m. Students can drop by and help out anytime during these work days!
How
Much of our produce is used in dishes in the New Dorm Dining Hall, Wyndham Alumni House restaurant and in Batten House, and we encourage those who use our produce to be involved with the planning and maintenance of the garden. We also organize gardening events on campus, as well as coordinate with other clubs on campus to host events and to share resources.
