The Skinner Greenhouse is home to the plants of the Building and Grounds Department.  Originally built in the ’50s, it was used to store cut flowers. Now the College uses it to grow herbs for the dining hall and annuals for the flower beds around campus, according to an interview with Head Gardener Martin Pinnavaia.

To learn more about Pinnavaia and his work at the Skinner greenhouse, read Matthew Bock’s article, “Pinnavaia presides over the Skinner Greenhouse.”
