Earthstock is a month-long celebration of the planet that happens every April at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Earthstock works to provide creative and educational programming for University students and Lincoln community members to recognize the urgency and feasibility of economic, social, and environmental sustainability in the face of climate change.

This year Dining Services is participating by featuring plant-based dishes every Thursday in April at the Abel, Cather, East, and Harper Dining Centers. These dishes emphasize cultural influences, local produce (Nebraska. Local.), and interesting protein sources. Highlights include eggplant parmesan, Udon noodle bowls, poke bowls, vegetable spring bowls, and white beans with sundried tomatoes.

To celebrate the feasibility of local foods at the Selleck Food Court, try the made-to-order salads from Moxie’s Gluten-Free Café with greens grown in-house with our Babylon micro-farm.
