CCAC Horticulture

Welcome to the Horticulture Technology Program web page. The Community College of Allegheny County is the largest provider of educational services in Western Pennsylvania and the nation’s 16th largest multi-campus community college. The Horticulture Program is based at the South Campus, located in West Mifflin, just south of Pittsburgh.

The program offers associate degrees, certificates and diplomas in floriculture, landscape design, and landscape and turfgrass management. Traditional classroom based learning is supplemented with practical hands-on experience in the greenhouses and display gardens. Some courses are offered as Internet based distance-learning classes that can be taken without the need for weekly trips to the campus. We offer classes that can prepare you to take the Pennsylvania Pesticide Applicator’s core exam and categories 6 and 7.   

The faculty in the program are involved with the Pennsylvania Landscape and Nursery Association and the Pennsylvania Floral Industry Association, two professional organizations. Students in the program can attend industry related activities or meet professionals in the field through trips to local gardens and businesses.
