Ken Singh, an organic gardening expert at Arizona State University, teaches students in the "Edible Campus" internship how to prepare the soil at a plot in ASU's Secret Garden.

Edible campus

While ASU is far from being a producing farm, it does generate a lot of food that has the potential to be sold, used by chefs on campus or donated to worthy causes.

The growing food production on the Tempe campus also is the focus of a plant biology internship, “The Edible Campus,” instructed by Randel Hanson, an assistant professor who teaches courses in environmental studies and climate change in the Department of Social Behavioral Sciences on the Polytechnic campus.
