Pitzer College's "Garden Parties" in Forbes Magazine

I wonder if any of those "other vegetables" include mushrooms.... Here's the link.

At Pitzer College in Claremont, Calif., food waste from the dining hall is used as compost for an organic garden where students grow lettuce, peppers, corn, kale, squash, carrots and other vegetables.

"The students also throw a garden party every week - usually Friday afternoon - where they get together to harvest the vegetables, then dine on the food with some live music," said Jim Marchant, Pitzer dean of students. The garden is used "to teach principles of sustainable agriculture and encourage college community members to become more connected with the source of their food."
