Vermont Sustainable Agriculture and Environmental Conservation
URI Service Corps’ “Freshman Only” trip will focus on environmental conservation and sustainable agriculture in Vermont. As climate change brings forth new challenges regarding diminishing natural resources and food insecurity, environmental consciousness becomes increasingly imperative. Vermont has a vibrant farming community, and is home to beautiful mountain-ranges and forested land, which we will engage with through service. This opportunity is perfect for those without much prior experience in service who are looking to develop confidence, grow as servant leaders, and make lasting friendships in their grade. We look forward to having a fun and meaningful trip!
