Trenton High School horticultural students have a few ideas for your spring plans and projects. See what they have to offer on Saturdays next month, May 6, 13 and 20, at the THS greenhouse. The sale runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. all three days. Those who stopped by the last sale will notice an expanded selection of hanging baskets, patio pots, succulents, houseplants and vegetables. Flowers will also be available. “The greenhouse is already full to the max and we have many more plants to transplant still,” said Trenton High School biology teacher Meghan Potter, who has been instrumental in the greenhouse’s addition to the
high school complex. The state-of-the-art facility was built in the spring of 2021 as part of the $57.1 million bond for school improvements that voters approved in the 2018 election. The 30x60-foot space was one of the final projects at the high school, which included renovations of the athletic complex, a new natatorium, technology infrastructure and the auto body shop. Potter, a fourth-generation farmer at Tuckers Farm in Bedford, said that since the greenhouse was built, the course has doubled in size. The science classes cover plant biology and propagation, horticultural practices and landscape design, all uniquely enriched by work in the greenhouse.
