History
The Farm Store came into existence as part of the grand plan of the AGRIscapes complex, an ever expanding student learning center that includes greenhouses, nursery, farmland, a visitor center, classrooms, event facility, and petting zoo. The Farm Store customer base continues to grow year after year providing much needed support to the College of Agriculture and more specifically, university students. Students have the opportunity to work at the store and learn about producing products they can sell including produce, meats, and clothing.
