🌱 FIELD NOTES | October 6, 2026

A little throwback to our recent Lobo Gardens field trip to Project Feed the Hood!

Our students got their hands in the soil, helped prepare growing beds, moved compost, and learned more about the work that goes into sustaining a community garden.

Experiences like this remind us that a local food system is about so much more than growing vegetables. It's also about the people, relationships, knowledge, and collective work that make community food production possible.

A huge thank-you to Project Feed the Hood for welcoming us and for the important work they do in Albuquerque! 💚
