Local Interest
Youth ages 5-18 are invited to join us to learn everything you need to know about growing flowers. From starting seeds indoors, to planting outdoors and taking care of the flowers until harvest. Youth will start some seeds at the workshop and go home with more seeds to plant on their own. Youth can then bring the flowers to the fair.
2024 Private Pesticide Applicator Training dates have been set for Southeast Nebraska in Nemaha, Pawnee, Johnson and Richardson Counties.
Winter can sometimes be very long, especially for a gardener. It is hard for us to stay indoors in the cold weather when we want to be outside working in our garden year-round. However, you can start your growing season early by starting seeds indoors. I have taken up the hobby of starting seeds indoors and it has continually expanded every year because I am enjoying it so much.
