PICA is a vibrant educational community in which to study agricultural and community sustainability.

It may be the place for you!

We are pleased to announce that the Clarence E. Heller Charitable Foundation generously awarded the Sustainable Living Center a $75,000 matching grant to build a Green Kitchen. Any donations we receive before November 1st, large or small, will be doubled! Please reach out to your family, friends, and other contacts to help us reach our goal of matching this donation.

The Green Kitchen
A place for hands-on learning about sustainability

The Green Kitchen will be a dynamic learning space with solar technology, a rainwater catchment system, recycled building materials, and a living roof. The kitchen will be linked with PICA's numerous educational gardens and be connected to a curriculum in Environmental Studies. The Green Kitchen complements our vision to create opportunities for students to engage with sustainability at every step of the food system. Please join us in making the Green Kitchen a reality at UCSC!
 Any donations, large or small, are appreciated.
