Yesterday we had a party of students from Elisabeth Murdoch College and Woodleigh School attend the glasshouse as part of their VCE Agriculture and Horticulture course curriculum.
The students were looking at technology in growing as well as IPM strategies and general crop growing. The trip allowed them to see first hand how commercial plants are grown, and there was an avalanche of questions from these keen young students.
For many of the students this was their first chance to view the commercial world of glasshouse growing, and hopefully this will inspire them to eneter the industry.
Hygiene protocols was another topic of interest and the students were able to observe this in action as part of their tour!
