As the world looks to new options to feed an ever-expanding population, sustainable food sources have taken center stage, in place of traditional farming methods. The Citadel Sustainability Project (CSP) is designed to not only meet a wide variety of needs for the college itself but also create new experiences and opportunities for students across the Lowcountry. The CSP is based on three simple concepts: Cadet-based, fills immediate and long-term nutritional needs, and provides hands-on sustainability education. These concepts will serve as the building blocks for the project as well as guiding principles for its eventual expansion on several levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-student-involvement\">Student Involvement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cadets learn about the fundamentals of aeroponic farming and the importance of having access to fresh, nutritious produce.
