4-H families are invited to participate in a special garden project, growing Sunburst Summer Squash. Seed packets are available on a first-come, first-served basis, starting April 17. The cost is $.50 for one seed packet per family. Please stop by the Lancaster County Extension Office front desk to register, pay for and pick up your seeds. Office hours are Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. We are unable to take orders over the phone or reserve seeds in advance.
The project will give youth the opportunity to learn about growing and exhibiting this tasty vegetable at county fair. Each participating family will receive a packet of seeds, along with a newsletter of growing tips.
