HORT 317 Gains Hands-On Experience with Purdue Grounds

Students laying down sod.

The Landscape Contracting and Management class (HORT 317) had the opportunity to work with Purdue Grounds on six landscape installations across campus on November 16. Six groups of students installed sod, landscape plants, and mulched beds throughout the morning. Special thanks to Phil Richie and Brooke Sammons, Purdue Grounds, for their cooperation in allowing students the opportunity to gain hands-on experiences.
