Student Farm Communities

The Ross Student Farm has its own community of interns, volunteers, club members and visitors to grow food and family with. This family in return helps us reach bigger communities, broadening our horizons and bringing sustainable food systems to those who want to take part in our mission: provide transformative learning opportunities in sustainable agriculture and food systems that foster leadership, teamwork, critical thinking and positive change among the Penn State and surrounding communities.

The Ross Student Farm joins the Penn State family in our weekly CSA pickups, where students can sign up to make weekly pickups of our farm produce.

The Student Farm Club is a University Park campus club for students to learn and work on the farm.

The local State College and Centre County community visits the farm and partakes in our seasonal events like Harvest Fest to learn more about sustainability and how delicious plant-based eating can be.
