The ten students in the horticulture capstone each create their own project to reflect their knowledge, interest and research in the extensive field of horticulture.  Their research proudly explores: 

-Palliative care green designs 

-PTSD horticultural therapy for veterans 

-The relationship between soil quality and income 

-An arboretum for community health 

-Green design for alleviating endangered bird populations 

-IPM alternatives for heathy spaces 

-Using hemp for remediation 

-Memorial gardens for healing 

-Food deserts and the use of art for community health 

-Interior greening with living furniture 

 

This creative and vast range of projects illustrate how wonderfully large and relatable horticulture is to other fields, areas of study, and the community beyond.
