Greenhouse




There will also be a greenhouse on board, which is being outfitted with a hydroponics system designed by the engineering class in Northern Californian. For now the design specs are created so that the structure appromiately 20' x 20' will be a half dome. There will be an opening at the very top in the shape of a circle and a "cap" of sorts that will be the lid of the greenhouse. The lid of the greenhouse roof wil allow for ventilation, and will also serve as a rainwater catch system. the rainwater catch system will run directly down into the planters down below.
Inside the greenhouse will be a structure that is welded to fit the circular shape of the inside measurements and provide a hanging rack for the buckets of container plants that will fill it.
