The produce is grown and harvested by students, faculty and staff at University’s Experiential Learning and Research Center at the MTSU Farm and Dairy off Guy James Road in Lascassas.

The Student Farmers Market will continue every Friday until mid-August. They are open both to the campus community and general public.

Because of a road closure, to reach the Horticulture Center on Lightning Way, it is best to take either Faulkinberry Drive off Middle Tennessee Boulevard or Champion Way off of Greenland Drive. To locate parking near the sale site, a printable campus map is available at www.mtsu.edu/parking/Map_2011-2012.pdf.
