Horticulture Club

PLANET:

The Professional Landcare Network (PLANET) team is a group of approximately 20 people with an interest in the horticulture and landscape industries. We compete in many different events.  They include Perennial and Annual ID, Weed and Turf ID, Truck and Trailer Operation, Sale Presentation, Personnel Management, Arboriculture, Wood Construction, and Patio Construction to name a few.  The list totals between 20 and 25 different events in which students compete. This is a national competition that brings more than 50 colleges and universities together in competition and gives students a chance to look for future employment and internships at the large career fair. Brian Jackson, Bryce Lane, and Anne Spafford are our advisors for this club activity.
