Edmonds College offers one of the longest running and most well-known horticulture programs in Western Washington. For more than 50 years, the Horticulture Department has been providing top-quality graduates to the landscape and nursery industry. Our instructors are experienced horticulture professionals. All students receive training in the foundations of horticulture science such as botany, plant identification, and soil science. Specialty areas include landscape design, nursery and greenhouse management, sustainable landscape management, and urban agriculture.
For the health and safety of our community, all college offices have moved services
online through July 30. We will begin offering in-person services by appointment only
Aug. 2 through Sept. 3. Employees are serving students and the community remotely during this time. Please
check back for updates about services available online, by email, or phone. Summer
quarter resources are available at edmonds.edu/summer2021. All college updates, resources, and information about COVID-19 is available at edmonds.edu/coronavirus.
We’re now live! We launched ctcLink — a new self-service portal and mobile app — to better serve
our students. Activate your account now! Click here to look up your ctcLink ID.
