The MSU Sunshine Garden runs the Daniella and Charlie Sunshine Garden and creates opportunities for MSU students to serve Lansing neighborhoods. Working in Lansing communities helps break the campus bubble and creates bridges between MSU and the community. The Sunshine Garden Club serves to address food insecurity and approaches gardening as a social and communal experience to decrease loneliness and strengthen community ties. To accomplish these goals, the club works with other organizations on campus that are working on the re-distribution of food to decrease food waste, increase food security, and improve Lansing’s food systems.
