Students are involved at every stage from preparing land to harvesting crops. Fruit and vegetables grown include onions, carrots, brassicas, beetroot, silverbeet, oranges, lemons, mandarins, stone fruits, strawberries, watermelons, pumpkins, cucumbers, and rockmelons. Native trees such as eucalypts are propagated and planted. Not only does the College horticulture operation supply their own residential needs with seasonal foods grown, but it also supplies a variety of commercial markets including Betros Brothers and the Rocklea markets. Equipment used ranges from moisture measuring equipment such as the tensiometer and neuron probe, to equipment such as the onion grader.
Trickle irrigation is used to water the horticulture cropping block.
