Bush Construction is honored to serve as the design-build partner for the Green House Venture Education Center – a visionary project that blends sustainability, education, and community impact. Located in St. Louis’ historic Shaw neighborhood, this 9,500-square-foot facility is the capstone to the Green House Venture (GHV) campus and a cornerstone for STEM and bioscience education across the region.
As both designer and builder, Bush Construction worked closely with GHV from day one to translate their mission into a dynamic, forward-thinking facility. Every element of the design reflects a shared commitment to hands-on learning, environmental stewardship, and access to cutting-edge agricultural technology.
The Education Center features:
-
A state-of-the-art greenhouse with aquaponics, vertical farming, and rooftop rain gardens
-
Flexible classrooms and lab space designed for bioscience and nutrition curriculum
-
A demonstration kitchen, multi-purpose gallery, and gathering areas for both students and the community
-
Integrated media technology enabling live-streamed instruction and regional outreach
-
Sustainable infrastructure including solar readiness, rainwater harvesting, and energy-efficient systems
Our team prioritized universal design principles and long-term sustainability throughout—from concept to construction—ensuring the center is accessible, adaptable, and built to serve generations of students.
Slated to open in Fall 2026, this project embodies Bush Construction’s ability to deliver complex, community-centered spaces through a fully integrated design-build approach. We are proud to help Green House Venture bring their bold vision to life and build a platform for future leaders in science, agriculture, and wellness.
