Production Horticulture
The Production Horticulture Facility features four "hoop houses"(providing a controlled growth environment for plants) connected by a "head house" featuring a work area, soil and transplant area, and storage for tools and supplies. The combined facility is used as a production horticulture lab modeled directly after those within the horticulture industry. UMC horticulture students gain direct experience with the culture, care, and growth of commercial horticulture crops here.
