Hello everyone! I’ve had the opportunity to be a part of Mrs. Loughery’s Horticulture classes during the 2024-2025 school year. I originally signed up for these classes as I am required to participate in at least one ag class each semester in order to be an FFA chapter officer. This has turned out to be a great experience for me and I know it has been for my fellow classmates as well.
Throughout the school year, we have learned about different ways to propagate plants and different types of greenhouse structures, and we’ve even gone through an interview process for different positions in our school greenhouse. While the school year is coming to an end, this class is just getting started. I would like to highlight some of the great things we will be doing to showcase all we have learned this year!

If you have any questions or would like to sign up for the Adult Education Class, please reach out to my advisor Jemma Loughery at jloughery@townsend.k12.mt.us or 406-314-3403.
All of the greenhouse plants have been planned, ordered, transplanted, designed, and cared for by the Horticultural Classes at Broadwater High School. The valuable skills students have learned will be useful for the rest of their lives. Please consider supporting the Horticulture students and the Broadwater FFA Chapter at one of the upcoming events this spring.
