A brief description of the program:
Our Aboretum Team utilizes this preference much more than any other department on campus. We purchase local trees, fertilizer, and other grounds equipment through local nursuries located only a half mile from campus. We only purchase when our on campus greenhouse and garden cannot produce or propogate the desired plant.
