"There's so much that you just can't learn from a textbook. You need to do things, you need to actually see the plants in their environment. Working at Plantations is a really good educational experience."--Esther Okech '16
"Having an understanding about plants, because that's really what life is based on, really helps you grow as a person. I had such a great experience here and I just hope that other students can have a similar one."--Chris Conlon '15
