Photo by Angela Foster.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Interested in growing fresh food and healing your local community? Yes, there\u2019s a class for that.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s an environmental science course offered at the University of Tennessee Chattanooga, Regenerative Design: Principles, Processes and Methods. The course focuses on creating sustainable, fresh, healthy food for the community and mimicking naturally occurring ecosystem processes to do so. The Peeples\u2019 Peace Garden\u2014a course resource\u2014is less than a mile from UTC near the intersection of 12<sup>th<\/sup> Street and Peeples\u2019 Street.<\/p>\n<p>Environmental studies and Adjunct Professor Christina Gibson teaches the course. When she\u2019s not in the classroom, she&#8217;s also a consultant, arborist and herbalist, specializing in urban ecology and herbal medicine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy background is in ecological design, urban forestry, and permaculture systems, so I\u2019m excited to teach the various concepts and practices involved in regenerating land and stitching ecosystems together, which is the essential work of our time as we confront climate change and its corresponding challenges,\u201d Gibson said.<\/p>\n<p>Students in the Regenerative Design class will be doing hands-on-work to maintain an edible garden in an urban setting. Students will interact with community partner organizations and explore social and environmental issues through real-life exposure. The course enables UTC and partner organizations to work directly with an underresourced local community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a fulfilling opportunity to be able to witness a garden grow from the ground up. My point of view on the 12th and Peeples\u2019 unhoused encampment alongside its permaculture garden has completely transformed in a matter of months,\u201d said Ellen Getter, a Hendersonville, Tennessee, native and May 2023 graduate with a degree in exercise and health sciences.<\/p>\n<p>Gibson also will teach a new course in fall 2023: Urban Forests. It\u2019s designed to teach students to strategize and protect the urban tree canopy. Both the Regenerative Design and Urban Forests courses both have openings for the fall semester.<\/p>\n<p>In early 2023, the UTC Walker Center for Teaching and Learning awarded a High-Impact Practices Grant to fund creation of the garden and two local organizations are working with UTC&nbsp; to make the garden happen. One is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.helprightherechattanooga.org\/who-we-are\/\">Help Right Here<\/a>, a group focused on survival support and housing assistance. The other, <a href=\"https:\/\/wedigcityfarms.org\/about-us\/\">the City Farms Grower Coalition<\/a> works to provide food and \u201cfood justice\u201d to low-income neighborhoods.<\/p>\n<p>The Peeples\u2019 Peace Garden aims to help the community and make a positive difference in people\u2019s lives, and UTC environmental science students are helping achieve that goal.<\/p>\n<h4>Photo gallery by Angela Foster<\/h4>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"880\" data-carousel-extra='{&quot;blog_id&quot;:9,&quot;permalink&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/blogarchive.utc.edu\\\/news\\\/2023\\\/05\\\/utc-students-create-food-garden-at-peeples-street-camp\\\/&quot;,&quot;likes_blog_id&quot;:202990556}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 880px; height: 747px;\" data-original-width=\"880\" data-original-height=\"747\" > <div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 511px; height: 747px;\" data-original-width=\"511\" data-original-height=\"747\" > <div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-large\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2023\/05\/utc-students-create-food-garden-at-peeples-street-camp\/peeples-street-garden-23-8\/\" border=\"0\" itemprop=\"url\"> <meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"507\"> <meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"743\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"50662\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2023\/05\/Peeples-Street-Garden-23-1435.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"873,1280\" data-comments-opened=\"\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Angela Foster\\\/University of Tennessee at Chattanooga&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON Z 6_2&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Christina Gibson and students work on a garden as part of her Regenerative Design Principles, Processes, and Methods class on Wednesday, Mar. 8, 2023.
