Campus Garden Returns

Campus Garden Returns

GB Soft OpeningCal State Puvungna will once again have a garden. The idea is similar to the Organic Garden that was created on the first Earth Day in the 1970s where students, faculty and alumni grew food here at Cal State Puvungna until it was removed in the 1990s.  The ribbon cutting and Tongva blessing of the new garden took place in early November and students and student groups will be able to use the garden in the Spring of 2015. CSULB President Scholar, Vincent Holguin (Gabrielino-Tongva) has actively pursued the goal of reestablishing an organic garden on campus and we congratulate him on his role in making this happen. AISC will be growing Sage, Dogbane (“Indian Hemp” for cordage) and Horse Tail (“Scrubbing Rush” a plant abrasive similar to sand paper) to use in the restoration of the Tiat.
