Snapshots From Our Garden Focaccia Event on Oct. 6!

EcoReps María和Betsy为大约12名学生举办了一个有机蔬菜佛卡夏制作活动, who signed up on a first-come, first-serve basis. 可持续发展办公室为学生们提供了所有的食材和烹饪用品, especially with help from the Cookware Checkout program，学生可以在那里购买烹饪或烘焙用品. 每个学生设计完自己的素食佛卡夏面包后，我们把面包放进烤箱烘烤. While waiting, 我们观看了南希·西弗顿大厨的餐桌节目，以强调当地厨师的故事，以及了解食物来源的重要性. Stay tuned for more fun events!

This newsletter's environmental activity feature: 悉尼台(PO'26)和EA之旅的阿玛戈萨盆地在莫哈韦沙漠

Students trying the world famous date shakes

During the weekend of October 6th, 在沙漠保护研讨会上，一群环境分析专业的学生来到了死亡谷国家公园以南莫哈韦沙漠中的阿玛戈萨盆地. 这次旅行的一个亮点是参观家族经营的中国大牧场枣农场. After a winding drive down to the bottom of a dirt canyon, 最后一个弯道展现出一幅超现实的景象，出乎意料地郁郁葱葱:一排排高大的绿色椰枣. 独特的位置在一个绿洲中，地下水聚集，允许植被生长, China Ranch is truly a must-see ecological gem in the desert. If you are in the area or on the way to Death Valley National Park, stop by to browse the gift shop, 在他们的面包店吃点东西(他们的椰枣奶昔是世界闻名的，他们的素食咖啡是必须尝试的), or take a scenic hike along Amargosa River.

The owner of China Ranch, Brian Brown, 在恶劣的沙漠中靠每年运送数千磅的椰枣和出售椰枣树来维持生计. However, date-farming is highly labor intensive. As Brian looks to retire, 班上的几名学生正在帮助他探索如何维护中国牧场的环境遗产. 目前正在讨论的想法包括将其改造成一个“豪华露营”Airbnb网站或教育推广中心. 了解更多关于中国牧场的信息，并随时了解其未来发展, be sure to follow them on Instagram: (http://www.instagram.com/chinaranch/?hl=en)

Student Feature: Hannah Hughes (PO '25)

汉娜·休斯(25岁)在大二开始时创办了5C植物使命组织，目的是“在校园里为植物主义者建立社区”，并“提高人们对工厂化农业的认识”.” Before getting to Pomona, 汉娜在她的高中领导了一个以植物为基础的俱乐部，并通过素食主义与可持续行动主义联系在一起. 她知道她想在大学里继续她的激情，并结识其他关心食物可持续发展的人. While leading 5C Plant-Based Mission, 汉娜能够在校园里组织各种以植物为基础的活动, 比如上学期在cafe47举办的地球月默认燕麦牛奶活动，以及在弗兰克餐厅举办的4/7素食节，有300多人参加. Outside of Pomona, 汉娜是工厂化农业意识联盟(FFAC)的领导集体研究员, 她在哪里与国家动物保护组织合作.
