Get your groceries right here on campus!

A day on the farm...  The Furman Farm located next to Cliffs Cottage (now called the Shi Center for Sustainability) and the lake is 1/4 acre garden with organic produce grown by our very own students!



The Farm stand is open on Thursdays from 3:30-5:30.  OR you can join the Furman Community Supported Agriculture (CSA).  A CSA membership for students is only $32 a month.  So, if you split that with your roommates that's only $8 a month a person...$2 a week!!!!!!!  When you place your order they even supply a list of recipes using the ingredients that you ordered from the garden.

It's the winter though?  No fresh veggies are going, right?  Wrong!  Winter bags can contain peppers, broccoli, peppers, sweet potatoes, beets, and much more!

So, think sustainably and smart and do your grocery shopping right here on the Furman Farm!
