Project description:

This project enhances the Student Farm's greenhouse cooling capacity by installing a solar powered fan. This is done in place of installing another grid based fan. Doing so improves the sustainability of the Student Farm, reduces grid energy use through the implementation of renewable energy technologies, and provides an opportunity to educate students about sustainable energy and agriculture.
