Scott Jacobs with Coupang On Delivering Sartori Cheese To South Korean Consumers

The Rooted organization's "Farm to School" program helps students from across the Madison Metropolitan School District really learn where their meals come from by growing their own food.

Teri Barr talked with several of those leading these educational efforts during a recent celebration of the program held at Troy Farm Garden on the city's northside. She also finds out how these lessons end up going well beyond gardening, and why other schools are now using this idea as an example.

The University of Wisconsin–River Falls Biology Department is growing in many ways, and of course, I don't just mean plants. Dr. Benjamin J. Crain joins me. He's an Assistant Professor at the University in the Biology Department. He tells me the university is growing in infrastructure that helps support students, researchers, and academics alike. Their newly named Sandra Bowen Biology Greenhouse offers an opportunity to tell a biogeographical story. He tells us that that means several rooms in the greenhouse allow for different biomes to be set. This gives the opportunity to grow and, in turn, learn about plants that aren't traditionally grown in Wisconsin.
