plant Science Club Projects
The Plant Science Club Greenhouse Conservatory serves two functions: as a teaching tool for University of Arizona courses and as a recruiting tool for Plant Science Club and School of Plant Sciences. Unlike other greenhouses and exhibits which are located far away, the Plant Science Club Greenhouse Conservatory in located directly on campus; therefore students often stop by the greenhouse in between classes.

The UA Community Garden represents a significant investment of time and money by both the UA administration and by the UA Student Sustainability leaders. The programs have attracted many novice gardeners that are eager to develop the knowledge and skills required for the challenge of field vegetable production in the southwest. To support the efforts of the Community Garden, gain experience with field vegetables, and provide gardener resources, the Plant Science Club has partnered with the UA Community Gardens.
