Gardening

4-H members in Steuben County greatly enjoy & benefit from working in their 4-H flower and vegetable gardens! By growing their own vegetables & flowers, they learn about seed/plant selection, what is needed to raise their plants and enjoying their harvest! Many youth also exhibit these projects in the youth building at the Steuben County Fair. Questions? Contact Jenny at 607-664-2300 or at jmg422@cornell.edu

Each spring, a 4-H Spring Garden Event is organized. This event includes educational information pertaining to various gardening topics along with a seed giveaway! The seeds are then sent home with the 4-H members to help them get their garden started! 4-H members are encouraged to exhibit what they have harvested at the Steuben County Fair in the Youth Building!
