The Trent Lands Plan Process and the importance of agricultural space on campus
 

Trent University is currently undergoing a lands planning process. They are seeking feedback until Monday, January 4th, 2021. We urge you to write in and let them know the importance of agricultural space on campus. Specifically, we are asking that:

-The Trent Vegetable Gardens remain in its current location with space provided for the Trent Market Garden and Trent Apiary in the fields north of the TVG plot. The proximity of the growing spaces to campus and accessibility for students is of utmost importance to these operations.

-That future construction and road developments minimize any impacts on these sites.

-That these growing spaces are represented in the official TLNAP maps circulated to the public.

-That the Lands Plan committee foster a collaborative consultation between Trent's community of stakeholder groups that are expressing a need to share information and concerns.
