Green peppers thrive in the hydroponic greenhouse at the Berkshire County House of Corrections.
Inmates at the Berkshire County House of Corrections are running an organic aquaponic greenhouse to grow lettuce for the inmates and local food banks. The plants are grown in water fed by wastewater from tilapia fish grown in the facility. The program provides food and a skill set for the inmates involved.
