4-H families have the opportunity to participate in the special garden and/or special agronomy projects this year. The Special Garden Project is Rubenza Cosmos. The flowers of the Rubenza are unique and the petals change color as they age. The Special Agronomy Project is broomcorn sorghum, which started as a garden crop but soon evolved into being grown for making brooms for the home. Seed packets are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Call the Extension office at 402-441-7180 to sign up for these special projects. The seed packages are free and one seed packet per project, per family. Seeds will be mailed after April 30.
