Good things are growing

RRU is reimagining a former 5.26 acre walled Edwardian kitchen garden into the Farm at RRU, which includes a Giving Garden, Market Garden, Indigenous Medicine Garden and a polyculture orchard.

The Farm at RRU supports: 

  • a gathering place for the community with free workshops and volunteer opportunities
  • a living lab for student's courses and research projects
  • a response to food security issues in the region
  • a food production centre that provides fresh fruit, veggies and herbs to community partners and students on campus
