On
March 20 and 21, 2003 the Niagara College Horticultural School held it's
36th Annual Open House. There were thousands of people in attendance
over the two days.
These
are some of the behind the scenes pictures I took as the students and
staff prepared for their visitors just hours before they are to arrive.
Over the
weekend the visitors where treated to the Muskoka Wildlife Center's
animals. You got to see and touch some of the Baby Porcupine, Skunk,
Snapping Turtle, Black Rat Snake, and a Barn Owl.
At the back of the Greenhouse there was Wine Tasting. The wine was made by
the Staff and students of the Vintner's Course at Niagara College and
Brock University.
The highlight of the Open House House as always was the great priced
plants.
In the main building were the displays by the Horticultural Industry ,
Horticultural Societies, Horticultural Students, and the students from the
Ecosystem Restoration Courses.
