A successful first (but definitely not last!) Lancer Fridge meeting! 💙

We loved connecting with club and organization representatives who joined UAI’s info session to learn more about the project! We can’t wait to keep the momentum going and see you at French Fry Check Day to learn more about food justice on our campus! 🥔🌱

A special thank you to everyone who came! 💙 Worcester State University MSA WSU Christian Fellowship Woo State LGBTQ+ Alliance WSU Urban Studies Club

Meet our Garden Manager! 🌱

As the heart of the Urban Action Institute’s teaching garden, Thidi helps cultivate not only fresh produce, but also hands-on learning experiences for our students. Through her knowledge, dedication, and passion for sustainable food systems, students gain valuable skills while connecting with their community and the environment.

We’re grateful for the leadership and care she brings to the garden each day. Be sure to say hello when you see her working in the garden! 🌿💚
