Agricultural Science Building
Construction is underway for our new facility containing laboratories specializing in soils, botany, and animal anatomy and physiology. A 5,300-square-foot greenhouse will also produce hydroponic vegetables and herbs and contains a tropical room, a desert room, and plant propagation areas.
800-acre college farm
The farm serves as a field laboratory to provide practical instruction in production agriculture and to produce feed for the college鈥檚 livestock. It is home to registered dairy and beef herds, horses, swine, poultry, sheep, and meat goats used for instruction in animal care and management. The farm is also used for soils, botany, feeds, and nutrition, and field and forage crops classes. Students have the opportunity to work on the farm as interns. Other facilities there focus on high-tunnel vegetable production, row crop production, and agroforestry practices.
