This week the WRM Food Waste team built a cardboard prototype of our food waste bin design. Our goal was to get a physical representation of the bin's size, most importantly the height! #foodwaste #prototype

What does the ACRE team do? Our team manages the trail that runs throughout the wetland park at ACRE. We are currently constructing educational signage to teach about the wetland environment and designing a boardwalk that will improve accessibility for visitors and researchers

Welcome to the Fall 2022 Water Resource Management ACRE project! We hope to improve the research and educational capabilities of the ACRE Wetland park. Our focus is in two main areas: education and construction. Read below for more information!

What is @ACRE_Purdue? The Agronomy Center for Research and Education is a campus-based field research station for agronomic crops and soils research. There is a protected wetland located within the park that is important to the local environment and to experiments being conducted

It's the final weekly sign team meeting for ACRE this semester. We are preparing for final design review later this week. We are so proud of these girls for all their hard work!

Here are some photos of members of our ACRE team working in the lab on Thursday! They are eager to get the railings done for our bridge.

The Education Team for the ACRE project is working hard to make signs that will eventually go into the wetland.

The Composting team's project partner liaison recently did a second survey of Tommy Johnston Park where they are hoping to set up their composting bins! Here are some photos.

A few weeks ago, our Hydroponics team went to the Bay Area in the ABE building and painted the tables to have planets on them. Overall, it was a great success and the paint job does a great job blending in with the space-themed narrative at the Imagination Station.

Our team had a successful design review yesterday! We got some great feedback. Thanks so much to our reviewers.

[EPICS WRM @WRMEPICS]

Our team is preparing for Midsemester Design Review this week on Thursday! WRM will have Composting, Hydroponics, and ACRE present what we have been doing so far and what we are planning for the semester.

The Hydroponics team worked to finish some educational videos that will be displayed in their project. The videos cover two different hydroponics systems as well as a general overview of hydroponics. Here is a picture of a NFT system created in Blender! @EPICSPurdue #EPICS
