4-H families have the opportunity to participate in the special garden and/or special agronomy projects this year. The Special Garden Project is Princess of India Nasturtium. This Victorian-era heirloom flower can be grown in a garden or containers. Nasturtiums are annual flowers and will add a splash of color to any landscape. The Special Agronomy Project is sugar beets. Sugar beets are a major contributor to the U.S. sweetener industry and occur in a vast range of different food products. 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 sponsored by Nebraska Extension in Lancaster County and one seed packet is granted per project, per family. Seeds will be mailed after April 30.
