Greenhouse Management & Landscaping is developed as a hands-on skills based class. The course will create an atmosphere of a commercial greenhouse where students will mass produce plants for sale, maintain a greenhouse, hydroponics, and potting soil production.
Landscaping and design will be another aspect of the course where students will learn skills in landscape architecture and design. Students will learn to build retaining walls, water gardens, and plant trees and shrubs. In addition, there is a potential for a partnership with DeJong’s and Nicks Greenhouses to fill needed orders.
