Hi Donald,  Good to see your email. You can go the greenhouse website, uvm.edu/~grnhouse/  to see prices for the various locations. The 2013 fee for the campus greenhouse is $5.00/sq.ft./month. How much space do you need? What are the start and end dates? What about meeting on Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 5th?
