The manual includes detailed instructions on aquaponics, composting, and how to install a solar PV component. ''</center>\n\n== Manual ==\n\nSee the manual here: [[File:Giving garden manual.pdf]]\n\n== Understanding the market ==\n\nThe greenhouse at Sierra Nevada College has shifted hands continually. There has never consistently been one person, club, or entity to take over and make awesome things happen. For a senior project, Sharhesa Fife decided to bring some order to the greenhouse and build and grow it into a living classroom for sustainability.\n\n== Project goals ==\n\n# Assist Sharhesa in her senior project\n# Create a detailed \"How-to\" guide for the greenhouse, so that any beginner could walk in, learn how things work, then operate it.\n# Add a solar component to the greenhouse to create a sustainable living classroom.\n\n== Design ==\n\n[[File:composttea.jpg|thumb|Compost Tea.]]\n\n[[File:plantbeds2.jpg|thumb|left|Traditional Plant Beds.]]\n\n{{Page data\n| license = CC-BY-SA-3.0\n}}\n\n[[Category:Sierra Nevada University]]"}
