The school now has four semesters under its belt and a brand new eco-friendly building outfitted with solar tubes and geothermal heating. Future plans for the school’s grounds include a gymnasium, meeting spaces, and retail shops, creating a hub for community interaction in an area currently without a grocery store, coffee shop, or church.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_57610\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 380px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/04/badger-rock.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-57610 \" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/04/badger-rock-380x253.jpg\" alt=\"Badger Rock Middle School, with its vegetable garden in the foreground.\" width=\"380\" height=\"253\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Badger Rock Middle School, with its vegetable garden in the foreground.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The students -- 65 percent of whom qualify for free or reduced-price meals -- spend one morning a week working in the school’s garden and turn their harvest into lunch. Other weekly activities include hands-on ecology investigations with a field biologist, outdoor projects like monitoring bird boxes, and indoor study sessions where they learn about the school’s rainwater-collection system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recently, the students added another activity to their roster: park rehabilitation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The idea originated one day when the sixth-grade class were in the field, checking out local biodiversity. The students tossed hula hoops into Badger Park, which lies next to the school, and counted the number of species corralled in each one. When they compared their tally with numbers from a dedicated conservation park nearby, they realized that there should have been three or four times as many species in Badger Park. Sixth-grader Elise Marquardt remembers thinking, “This isn’t good.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Inspired by ecologist Aldo Leopold’s Depression-era \u003ca href=\"http://www.aldoleopold.org/programs/shack.shtml\">rehabilitation\u003c/a> of an abandoned farm, the students decided to take action to restore the park’s diverse ecosystem. Their science teacher, Aaron Kaio, called the Parks Department to ask if the students could work on remediating the area. Skeptical at first, officials eventually agreed to send someone out to evaluate the students’ plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To create the rehabilitation plan, students picked species they wanted to see in the park and researched their habitat requirements to figure out how to attract them. They also reached beyond the student body and sought input from local residents. Badger Park is a community space, but no one was using it -- everyone went to another park farther away. The students went door to door to find out what people would like to see in the space. They then incorporated some of those ideas -- like nature trails -- into the plan they presented to the Parks Department in November 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the presentation, the Parks Department agreed to collaborate with the students on restoring the area. Says Kaio, “It wasn’t until the kids were able to present to them that they were like, ‘These kids do kind of know what they’re talking about, and they’re passionate about it, so okay, let’s give them a shot.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_57606\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 239px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/04/elise-and-jesse2.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-large wp-image-57606 \" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/04/elise-and-jesse2-239x360.jpg\" alt=\"Badger Rock students comb through the park for different plant species.\" width=\"239\" height=\"360\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Badger Rock students comb through a local park, looking for different plant species.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The first testament to the students’ thoughtful planning and unremitting enthusiasm is a 1,000-square-foot prairie full of native species like brown fox sedge and blue flag iris bordering a drainage basin adjacent to the park. It’s the fruit of collaboration with the seventh graders, who had spent the year studying water flow on the property.

The students tossed hula hoops into Badger Park, which lies next to the school, and counted the number of species corralled in each one. When they compared their tally with numbers from a dedicated conservation park nearby, they realized that there should have been three or four times as many species in Badger Park. Sixth-grader Elise Marquardt remembers thinking, “This isn’t good.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Inspired by ecologist Aldo Leopold’s Depression-era \u003ca href=\"http://www.aldoleopold.org/programs/shack.shtml\">rehabilitation\u003c/a> of an abandoned farm, the students decided to take action to restore the park’s diverse ecosystem. Their science teacher, Aaron Kaio, called the Parks Department to ask if the students could work on remediating the area. Skeptical at first, officials eventually agreed to send someone out to evaluate the students’ plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To create the rehabilitation plan, students picked species they wanted to see in the park and researched their habitat requirements to figure out how to attract them. They also reached beyond the student body and sought input from local residents. Badger Park is a community space, but no one was using it -- everyone went to another park farther away. The students went door to door to find out what people would like to see in the space. They then incorporated some of those ideas -- like nature trails -- into the plan they presented to the Parks Department in November 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the presentation, the Parks Department agreed to collaborate with the students on restoring the area. Says Kaio, “It wasn’t until the kids were able to present to them that they were like, ‘These kids do kind of know what they’re talking about, and they’re passionate about it, so okay, let’s give them a shot.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_57606\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 239px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/04/elise-and-jesse2.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-large wp-image-57606 \" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/04/elise-and-jesse2-239x360.jpg\" alt=\"Badger Rock students comb through the park for different plant species.\" width=\"239\" height=\"360\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Badger Rock students comb through a local park, looking for different plant species.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The first testament to the students’ thoughtful planning and unremitting enthusiasm is a 1,000-square-foot prairie full of native species like brown fox sedge and blue flag iris bordering a drainage basin adjacent to the park.

The potato fields became vacation home lots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are at least 1,200 acres that won’t go into development anytime soon, however. Those are the fields where brothers Tom and Ken Koyne, fifth-generation islanders, grow organic red wheat for use in Death’s Door whiskey, gin and vodka.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Using organic ingredients for alcohol presents special challenges according to chief distiller John Jeffrey, “Because it’s organic, it tends to come in with a much higher microbial load than commercial grain.” Without the chemical pesticides used on many commercial crops, microbes are free to flourish. Those microbes sometimes compete with Death's Door's signature yeast, which is added to a mash made of island wheat and other grains during the fermentation process. It’s the yeast’s job to feast on the sugars in the grain mash and produce ethanol, the chemical compound that gives liquor its intoxicating punch. But other microbes may also be eating those sugars, making it more difficult for the mixture to reach the required alcohol content.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_56785\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 258px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/03/graph001.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-56785\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/03/graph001-258x169.jpg\" alt=\" Liquid chromatography measures ethanol and sugar peaks during fermentation.

There are artisanal distilleries sprouting up all over the country, many of which are using locally-sourced ingredients. But it’s unlikely that many have such a strong association with a particular place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People are relieved when they hear that Death’s Door is named after a real place and that there’s real people involved and real farming,” says Ellison. “It’s a story of real growth and a story of real rebirth in a rural place in America.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_57338\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/07/DSC03370-e1372446698711.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-57338\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/07/DSC03370-e1372446698711.jpg\" alt=\"Wheat growing on Washington Island\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/39/2013/07/DSC03370-e1372446698711.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/39/2013/07/DSC03370-e1372446698711-400x225.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wheat growing on Washington Island.

Those are the fields where brothers Tom and Ken Koyne, fifth-generation islanders, grow organic red wheat for use in Death’s Door whiskey, gin and vodka.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Using organic ingredients for alcohol presents special challenges according to chief distiller John Jeffrey, “Because it’s organic, it tends to come in with a much higher microbial load than commercial grain.” Without the chemical pesticides used on many commercial crops, microbes are free to flourish. Those microbes sometimes compete with Death's Door's signature yeast, which is added to a mash made of island wheat and other grains during the fermentation process. It’s the yeast’s job to feast on the sugars in the grain mash and produce ethanol, the chemical compound that gives liquor its intoxicating punch. But other microbes may also be eating those sugars, making it more difficult for the mixture to reach the required alcohol content.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_56785\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 258px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/03/graph001.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-56785\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/03/graph001-258x169.jpg\" alt=\" Liquid chromatography measures ethanol and sugar peaks during fermentation.

There are artisanal distilleries sprouting up all over the country, many of which are using locally-sourced ingredients. But it’s unlikely that many have such a strong association with a particular place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People are relieved when they hear that Death’s Door is named after a real place and that there’s real people involved and real farming,” says Ellison. “It’s a story of real growth and a story of real rebirth in a rural place in America.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_57338\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/07/DSC03370-e1372446698711.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-57338\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/07/DSC03370-e1372446698711.jpg\" alt=\"Wheat growing on Washington Island\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/39/2013/07/DSC03370-e1372446698711.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/39/2013/07/DSC03370-e1372446698711-400x225.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wheat growing on Washington Island.

These games provide hours upon hours of entertainment for dedicated players, many of whom are enticed by the prospect of hunting zombies and defeating alien empires. But of course, video games aren't just about fun these days. Since the late 1980s, video games have been used as teaching tools in the classroom, at home, and in other informal education settings. More recently, there has been a surge in the development of games that are being used not only to educate students, but also to enlighten scientists, policy makers, and others who hope to make use of the players' collective brain-power to help solve real-world problems. Stepping into this arena, a group of scientists and educators from the Midwest are trying to harness some of that time spent battling otherworldly marauders, and refocus it around answering questions related to an important agricultural puzzle: how to sustainably manage a biofuel farm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although there is general agreement that we should be growing crops that can be turned into biofuels, scientists and farmers are still debating the best way to proceed. There are questions about which crops to grow and how to raise them sustainably —as well as the larger question of what it means to be “sustainable.” Is a sustainable farm one with the best soil quality, or one that produces the most fuel, or one that yields enough income to support its farmers?\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_55747\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 450px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/04/FoF_screenshot-copy-e1370384995846.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-55747\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/quest/wp-content/uploads/sites/39/2013/04/FoF_screenshot-copy-e1370384968279-450x253.jpg\" alt=\"The fields on the left are populated by corn and switchgrass; at right, graphs show the farm's sustainability over time in terms of ecology, income, and energy production. \" width=\"450\" height=\"253\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The fields on the left are populated by corn and switchgrass; at right, graphs show the farm's sustainability over time in terms of ecology, income, and energy production.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>To answer some of these questions, scientists at the \u003ca href=\"http://wid.wisc.edu\">Wisconsin Institute for Discovery\u003c/a> (WID) and at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have teamed up with ecologists and educators to create a \u003ca href=\"http://wid.wisc.edu/featured-science/student-computer-game-simulates-biofuel-production/\">video game\u003c/a>.
