    Good Morning!

    I am wondering if anyone has a community rooftop or patio garden as part of their student union.? We have an unused patio space on the 2nd floor of our building that I would love to turn into a community garden.? The hope is to be able to grow herbs/vegetables to give to the food pantry.? If you have something like this, could you direct me to your website or send me any resources you have?

    All the joy,

    Kait

    Talley Student Center has a pollinator rooftop that may as well be a garden.
