On an overcast day in late August, students from the UOG Residence Halls were clearing out overgrown weeds behind House 33 in Dean\u2019s Circle.<\/p>\n
The students were participating in one of the Green Garden projects organized by the University of Guam\u2019s Center for Island Sustainability. The land they cleared, roughly 50 by 65 feet, is dedicated to promoting sustainability on campus.<\/p>\n
Austin Shelton, Ph.D., executive director of CIS, explained the UOG Green Garden could facilitate learning about gardening and conservation techniques, and promote their use at home.<\/p>\n
Shelton recalled his experience of growing produce at home:<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I was in middle school my dad and I started planting banana trees at our home in Asan. Now that I have my own house, I grow things like bananas, papayas, ates, soursop.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shelton also highlighted how available, though limited resources can be used to pursue sustainably.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re using a small shared space,\u201d Shelton said. \u201cThere is a lot you can do with a limited property that you or your family might have.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Vegetation<\/b><\/p>\n
Some of the vegetation that will grow in the garden includes papaya, okra, basil, boonie peppers, eggplant, and green onions. Access to local produce such as these is a vital component for having a nutritious diet, especially amongst college students.<\/p>\n
