University of Florida's
Student Agriculture Council has provided garden plots, for over twenty
years, to UF students, alumni, staff, retired UF faculty and
Gainesville residents. The UF
Student Agricultural Gardens are located right next to the
Bat House and across from
Lake Alice on Museum Rd.
During my visit to Gainesville Florida
in May 2006, I took a few pictures of the gardens while a couple was
tending to their crops. I couldn't tell exactly what they were growing
but I did see tomatoes, and different types of herbs.
Prospective amateur gardeners can rent
a plot for either a semester or the entire year. The rental fee for a
year is $30.00.
The information and contracts for
renting a plot at the
University of Florida Student Agricultural
Gardens are located inside the mailbox at the front entrance. |
