Princeton Undergraduates Grow Profitable Student Farm
The Princeton University student farm shows expected profitability for future seasons, though this initial trial year did not earn money. About thirty acres on campus near Loch Carnegie were tilled, with produce sold to university dining halls and upper class clubs. Next year plans call for larger scale farming, a team of horses, and modern implements. Five men held permanent roles June through September, with strong demand for temporary jobs despite space limits. Dr Hibben helped coordinate, providing access to university dining hall bedrooms and a gas stove for farm operations.
