The one problem with the vegetable garden situation at Ulloa is the wind. It is less sheltered than almost anywhere on campus, and some plants take it hard. It also means the garden isn’t as warm as other parts of the yard. These things have brought up some interesting conversations with students about micro-climates and ways to shelter plants. Everyone wanted lots of snow peas, so we came up with a creative way to keep the plants upright during these early spring storms. The plants are happy!
