Above: What is now the UCSC Center for Agroecology began in the late 1960s as a hand-cultivated organic garden carved out of rocky soil and thick brush by Englishman and expert gardener Alan Chadwick and his eager student apprentices. The farm and garden complex has since expanded to 32 acres of fields, orchards, greenhouses, cabins, and, most recently, an aquaculture facility, all on the same gently sloping campus hill overlooking the Monterey Bay.
