Goals

West Prairie CUSD recently completed a school expansion that required relocating their existing greenhouse. To keep the new greenhouse project on budget, Jeff Bridgewater with Greenhouse Megastore was able to salvage and repurpose several components from the original structure.

The new greenhouse is a 30 ft wide x 60 ft long Gable 7500 Series model with an 8 ft under-gutter height. Its features include a galvanized, roll-formed steel engineered frame designed to meet both wind and snow load requirements, 8mm clear twinwall polycarbonate covering, a lower mechanical ventilation system, gable venting, a manual 50% shade system, and environmental controls.

Greenhouse Megastore collaborated closely with the school’s agriculture department and the project architect to ensure the new structure included everything needed to fully support their program.
