“Anyone interested in garden/landscaping/nursery business, or even learning more for their own pleasure, should look into COD. The programs are comprehensive and the instruction great. Some of the happiest times of my life were those spent with the instructors and students at COD. College of DuPage is a wonderful asset to our community and most people don’t even realize its education, entertainment and cultural value.”
