The Garden

Starting in June, 2008, UW Oshkosh has a student-organized community garden. It will serve as a resource for students, faculty, and the community.

The garden is located at 633 West 3rd Avenue, just west of Ohio Street, behind the old National Guard building. Breaking ground for the garden began June 2008.

Want to join other students in working on the garden? Check out the UW Oshkosh Community Gardens Club or contact the club by email at gardens@uwosh.edu. 

We are also part of the Community Garden Partnership (Fox Valley).

Bike and Pedestrian Survey

The City of Oshkosh is updating its Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation Plan and they are looking for public input from people who live, work, study, or recreate in Oshkosh.   They have developed a website that has links to an online survey:

Even if you do not currently use a bike or walk to campus, completing the survey will help the city learn why you do not, or how they might improve city infrastructure. 

 

Most of us use city facilities every day: sidewalks along streets carrying automobiles through campus are built by the city, to their current standards.  The last public meeting was in August, so student and staff input was not representative of UW Oshkosh pedestrians and bicyclists. So please consider giving the city some feedback from the campus community.
