The Concordia Greenhouse (The Greenhouse) is a multifaceted space located on the 13th floor of the Hall Building. The Greenhouse provides students with a sunny study space surrounded by a variety of fruiting and non-fruiting plants, as well as a place to learn about horticulture (Chevrier, Erik 2022). They also have many working groups including: City Farm School, The Epic Seedling Sale, Houseplant Propagation and the Four Season Growing Program. Further they provide space to HydroFlora and CultivAction.
The Concordia Greenhouse has a long history that started as a department of the Biology Department. In 2002, it was announced that they would be relocating to the Loyola Campus. In 2004, Sustainable Concordia began a working group that later became an independent working group.
In the past the Greenhouse Project produced food on and off-campus. They produced seedlings, sprouts, microgreens, houseplants, herbs, spices, teas, local fruits, and tropical fruit. They also provide a variety of educational workshops, including mushroom growing, balcony gardening, aquaponics, hydroponics, and sprout producing, among other topics. Members of the Concordia community can volunteer at The Greenhouse and gain hands-on experience growing plants.
