About The Program: Environment and Agriculture: Sustainable Food Systems (http://www.offcampusstudy.umn.edu/hecua/agri.html) is offered through the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities and run by an organization called HECUA (www.hecua.org). The program allows students to understand sustainability through the lens of the U.S. food system.

Spend 3 days on a farm of your choice helping with planting, milking, and caring for animals. Students may continue working on a farm for the remainder of the summer by signing up for the optional 2 credit internship.
