Katie Donohoe started the horticulture program in 2009 with five shovels
and a trailer. At the time, she was told this was a pilot program and, if
all went well, could become permanent. She began that fall semester with a
handful of students. By January, there was a waiting list. Donohoes
program grew like a weed and hasnt stopped.
.
It didnt happen by accident. She knew that for the program to succeed, she
would have to fund consumables such as soil, fertilizer and plants. She
didnt always take the path most traveled to do so. Thinking outside the
window box allowed her to obtain grow lights.

.
Today she has 120 students and the school has hired another instructor,
Alex Pennekamp, to help teach. All students take an introductory class.
About half of them continue taking the other horticulture classes.
.
We get two kinds of students, Donohoe says. Students that want to grow
crops, and students that dont like sitting in class.
.
The greenhouse class was on the roof tending to crops in raised beds.
Donohoe had them divided into five teams, each with their own business. In
addition to creating a company name and logo and solving business
problems, each student is growing 120 plants from seed until it becomes a
salable crop.
