My capstone will not fit the mold for past projects. But, it will do so from the familiar perspective of an LC ENVS student. My area of study at LC has always been centered around food. My interests were exceedingly broad in the beginning, but have been slowly whittled down to a razor’s edge. I’ve gone from studying the political economy of industrial agriculture at home and abroad, to attempting to understand the ins and outs of running a bakery. The business plan I create will draw on my wide range of studies during my time as an ENVS student, as well as new material I have had to learn due to the technical nature of the business plan. There will also be an essay that connects the technical documents to my broad area of study.
