In collaboration with faculty from across the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, the LEAF Lab is part of implementing a program designed to enhance community building through field-based experiential learning. Funded through the USDA, the Bridge Adventure program began its inaugural year in Fall 2021. Each year, the program admits 8-12 students from across TTU's campus who will be participants for a period of two years. Regular meetings and activities help foster a close-knit community of students as they prepare for program excursions. Participants go on three trips per year with expenses covered through program funding. These trips include one service learning trip, one mentored research campaign, and one team-building adventure. In 2026, Bridge Adventure will be launching a new partnership with the University of Puerto Rico.
