One of the Master Gardener’s first projects in 2000 was the landscaping of the Erie County Fairgrounds. This project has been a part of the Volunteers’ work for the past 10 years and you can certainly tell! Erie County can boost that they have one of the most beautiful fairgrounds in the state. Not only has the project been a service to the county, but also educational for both the Master Gardeners and those who visit the fairgrounds. It’s a great place to look around and get ideas for your own landscape. One can see what plants do well in our local environment and also what plants thrive in shade as well as full sun. This year the fairgrounds is the location of the Junior Master Gardener program. The kids have planted their own garden and are learning the in’s and out’s of how to grow plants and maintain a garden throughout the season. Thanks to all the Master Gardener Volunteers who have and continue to invest many hours our love and labor into the fairgrounds landscape!
