Waterman: A living classroom for all.
Where Are the Cows?
They’ve been on a break while we built the new Multispecies Animal Learning Complex—but now they’re ready to come home to Waterman!
With your help, our dairy herd (and more!) will return, bringing big dreams and even bigger impact.
261 Donors = $10,000 Unlocked
What happens when 261 donors make a gift to the "Bring The Cows Home...and So Much More" campaign? A generous challenge gift of $10,000 will be unlocked to support Waterman and the new Multispecies Animal Learning Complex.
Make your gift, inspire your friends to make theirs, and help us meet the challenge!
Meet Waterman
Waterman isn’t just a “farm”– it’s a living classroom, a research powerhouse, and a community hub. Your support helps students learn, researchers innovate, and families connect with agriculture in meaningful ways.

With generous partnerships,
- Students are having transformational hands-on experiences,
- Faculty-led research is changing the way we use our natural resources,
- Study-backed findings are giving insights on the connection between food and health,
- Community learners gain a firsthand look at agriculture’s impact on their lives,
- And so, so much more.
