Snow may slow things down, but the work doesn’t stop. Grateful for farmers who keep showing up, even when winter weather brings everything else to a pause. A big thank you to our Operations and Farm teams for working hard this week to clear our campus roads this week!

Today on the Farm 🌙🦋 This beauty is a Polyphemus moth! Spotted just after sunrise, it’s a reminder that not all pollinators work the day shift - some are helping our ecosystem thrive while most of us are fast asleep. 😴🌱 #Agricenter #Pollinators #Agriculture #FarmLife
