Supporting Local
Sustain: Our Student-run farm
At the Sustain by Cultiv8 student-run vegetable production farm, our students are excited to be offering farm box subscriptions again this year! With different size, duration and price options, you can purchase subscriptions for yourself, your friends, or for families in need. Your purchase goes a long way to support the training of our students in sustainable farming. Buy Local, Eat Local!
Innovation and Entrepreneurship
The Next Generation of Agriculture
The Cultiv8 interactive and interdisciplinary sandbox inspires and supports Dalhousie Agriculture students to build competencies through multidisciplinary innovation and entrepreneurship exercises that focus on strong communication, creativity, and collaborative problem-solving in the food and agriculture space. Our students are enabling the businesses they own or work for to make better decisions and improve efficiencies while encouraging sustainable agriculture problems.
What We Do
Cultiv8, Dalhousie University's Agricultural Sandbox, provides students with opportunities, skills, and experiences to have impact in their future of work.
Through programming, internships and mentorship, Cultiv8 builds student capabilities around the competencies of innovation: communication, collaboration, creativity and problem-solving.
