This is the Educational Garden at the
St. Joseph County Grange Fair. Ten of our very talented and
dedicated volunteers are responsible for the design, layout,
planting and maintaining of the garden.
Over a thousand visitors walked through the garden during fair week
(September 17 - 23). Among the visitors were 32 third grade classes
who visit many stops for "Ag-Citing Experience". One of the gardens
within the educational garden is the children's garden. Where they
were amazed by the Sensitivity Plant, Peanut plants, and Eyeball
plant, to name a few.
Other gardens within the Educational garden are Native Grasses, A
pond and rock garden, Prairie Grasses, Perennial garden, Children's
garden, Annuals, Zen garden, Cancer fighting vegetables, Herbs and
Spices, and Fruit Garden.
