Connecticut Greenhouses
Connecticut Growing Dome stories currently feature Marvelwood School in Kent, where a 26' geodesic greenhouse supports hands-on garden education, farm-to-cafeteria meals, community service, and food donations. Students use the dome alongside outdoor growing space to learn skills like planting, composting, crop rotation, pest management, and transplanting while building a deeper connection to where their food comes from.
