Garin Bulger, a Bloustein School PhD student, CUPR Senior Research Specialist, and lecturer, took his undergraduate Sustainable Food and Energy Policy students out to Ironbound Farm in Asbury, NJ, to see firsthand how a real sustainable farm operates in order to put learnings into practice.

In his LinkedIn post, Bulger thanked Charles Rosen and everyone at the farm for arranging and helping facilitate this amazing experience. He said, “the amount of knowledge and passion over there is astounding. When learning about food systems, hands-on learning needs to be a key part of the experience.”
