Rutgers Gardens is used to teach many college-level classes and provide places, materials, and experiences for students and instructors to enhance course curricula. For example, materials grown at the Gardens are used in laboratory exercises and other hands-on course units, students take field trips to Rutgers Gardens, the Cook’s Market is used to sell produce that students have grown in classes and as part of internships, and large groups of students volunteer or intern at the Gardens each year. We welcome all students, from Rutgers and beyond, to use our gardens, trails, and forest for personal recreation and visits.
