The course will compare conventional agricultural systems with sustainable agriculture. The course will specifically study the field of agroecology which teaches agriculture from an ecological perspective. The course will review agricultural design on both a large scale and for the small homestead to reduce environmental impacts from agriculture. The horticultural industry, landscape practices, and habitat restoration will also be considered. A final project will produce a conceptual landscape plan for a home site. A section of the course will also have a practical component where students will be able to garden; producing a crop from conception to harvest.
