Decorate for the holidays while supportingHACC's Ornamental Horticulture Program

Nov. 29, 2007
Nothing says "happy holidays" like pots of beautiful, bright red poinsettias.

Greenhouse Production students in the Ornamental Horticulture Program at HACC, Central Pennsylvania's Community College have hand-raised 4- and 6 ½-inch pots of the seasonal flowers, which they will sell from 7:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday at the Broad Street Market, Third and Verbeke streets, Harrisburg.

The cost is $3 for a 4-inch pot and $8 for a 6 ½-inch pot containing three plants.

This classroom effort is the first of its kind for the students, who not only raised the flowers but developed a marketing plan as well. HACC launched the Ornamental Horticulture Program this fall.
