Students in Mrs. Mazzucca’s Agricultural Technology classes recently completed a Model Greenhouse Project, showcasing their creativity, problem-solving, and understanding of one avenue of the horticultural industry.

Through this hands-on engineering challenge, students learned how to design and blueprint a functioning greenhouse that supports plant growth. They applied real-world agricultural technology concepts—such as ventilation, irrigation, light exposure, and material selection—to create scaled, labeled blueprints that demonstrate their grasp of how structure and environment impact plant success. Students used these detailed blueprints to construct their own model greenhouses, experiencing the challenges of designing and bringing their model to life.

This project integrated STEM principles, environmental awareness, and agricultural innovation, allowing students to experience the design process from concept to presentation.
