Slightly over per week in the past on Oct. 1, simply earlier than the air turned crisp and the leaves started to fall, volunteers with The Individuals’s Farm scholar group gathered on the F.H. King backyard in Eagle Heights to collect their harvest after a summer season spent tending, watering and weeding. After the apples had been picked, the kale washed and the potatoes dug up from the earth, the scholars hauled their harvest to East Campus Mall, the place they gave away their recent vegatables and fruits to the campus group.
