Description
Prominently located outside the new building and facing the historic Quad, the front garden is an opportunity to honor local culture and the land on which USU was built. By selecting native plant species that are significant for Utah’s indigenous community, the front garden celebrates medicinal plants that have sacred and ceremonial importance for indigenous populations and brings local, national, and international communities together in the hopes of creating a space for greater connectedness and shared experiences.
