Did you know there’s a working garden right here at Rice? 🌱

At the Rice Holistic Garden, students can learn by doing: planting, harvesting, meeting new people and taking a break from the pace of campus life. Produce harvested from the garden even makes its way into Rice’s serveries.

The Holistic Garden is open to all. Come by and see what’s growing! 🌸
