We'll be poolside at the Best Western Kelly Inn in St. Cloud. Farm Master Plan - An Update The College has been working diligently over the summer on the Master Plan. A planner from Vierbicher Associates, and our own campus planner, have led our steering committee of faculty and staff through several workshops to help us better define our needs now and into the future. Students, industry representatives, campus and local community members were also invited to participate at various stages in the process. We have come to the point where two concept plans have been developed for each farm - the Campus Farm and the Mann Valley Farm. One concept plan incorporates updates and improvements to the farms as they exist, the other offers some bold ideas for change. The best of each concept plan will be merged to create the final Master Plan for each Farm. You can view the plans here; feel free to provide any feedback using our email link in the menu on the left. Have a wonderful fall! Copyright © 2012 University of Wisconsin-River Falls.
