A huge thank you to past graduate Dausyn Heslop and Heslop Excavating for the new rock around our greenhouse! You see rock around a greenhouse is more than just aesthetic… It helps with maintenance around the greenhouse, helps with weed pressure and bug pressure and keeping a distance between those and our greenhouse plants!
