Environmental and Sustainability Programs

So, how do you milk a goat again? Where can I find out about the Tar Sands controversy? Anything you’d want to watch, read, listen to, or learn how to do can be found in our resource library. We have gardening books, DIY manuals, activist zines, and documentaries concerning issues such as plastic, oil, and environmental justice. Our library is packed with scholarly publications as well, so utilize our library for your research for class.
