The Plants Are Coming, the Plants Are Coming!!

Hello everyone!

It's hard to believe that the semester here at Missouri State is almost halfway done... Anyone else ready for spring break though? 🙋🏼 I've had the privilege of being in 75 degree weather surrounded by new life every day here in the growing room. 🌱☀️ Sounds like spring doesn't it?

Well, have I got exciting news for you! Coming soon to a dining hall near you,
🌷 SPRING! 🌼

(The closest we can get to it with this crazy Missouri weather anyway...) 

Jennifer and I have been prepping for weeks, and are finally ready to move some of these beautiful babies to new homes.

 

 We're so excited to show you what we've been up to! Expect to see lettuce, kales, basils, and a variety of other green goodness popping up in the dining halls in the coming weeks. And as always, enjoy your campus-grown herbs and greens!

Have a fantastic day!

Hello everyone,

Jennifer Rice here. I'm new to the Green Team working with the hydroponic zip grow towers on campus. I'm currently a senior at M.S.U. I'm working on dual degrees at moment - a Bachelors Degree in Envionmental Plant Science with a Horticulture emphasis and Natural Resources. I've had some experience in the hydroponic field, and love to grow plants hydroponically. I hope to help Rachel grow delicious locally grown food for all you lovely folks. Cheers to a great semester!
