Farm use & Guidelines

As of May 17, 2021 the CELS Farm Use Guidelines are effective for all faculty, staff, and students wishing to use land or facilities at URI’s farms (i.e. Agronomy Farm, East Farm, and Peckham Farm) for teaching, research, extension, and public engagement activities consistent with the university’s land-grant and sea-grant missions. The farms may also be available for mission-relevant events hosted by partner organizations, student groups or university volunteers.

Please note that the appropriate request form must be completed and submitted by the deadlines below for review by the CELS Dean’s Office and CELS farm managers.
