University of Minnesota-Waseca ends its horticulture program. Rochester Community and Technical College introduces Horticulture Technology program, using instructional lab space in a remodeled culinary arts kitchen. Students and staff build a hoop house, a 1,000 sq. ft. temporary greenhouse, for growing plants. The project takes a month to complete. RCTC's $4.5 million request for a horticulture center is approved by the state legislature. In June, ground is broken on the project. In August, horticulture students began classes in the facility.
