Project
Dr. Gary and Linda Assarian Greenhouse

The Greenhouse
In cooperation with the Agrarian state university, we have built a greenhouse in front of their Vanadzor branch main building. This greenhouse will have a dual function: the major part will be dedicated to growing tree seedlings in containers and another part will serve for educational and research purposes for students and professors of the university.

Nursery Function
Tree seedlings grown here will be more viable. The main idea is that during the entire growth and planting process of the tree seedlings the root system is not disturbed and the seedlings are not damaged during the transportation process. This offers the opportunity of having healthy and viable seedlings in a short period of time and a higher survival rate during reforestation activities. The growth of tree seedlings in containers, for afforestation and reforestation programs, is widely used in many countries.
