The Charles Mix County 4-H program received a $200.00 CFEL Gardening Mini Grant. The funding was used to start a perennial bed at the Lake Andes Community Garden site. Some of the items planted were raspberries (red, yellow and purple), winter onions, strawberries, chives, asparagus, sage and thyme. A garden and soaker hose were also purchased with the funds. Currently the 4-H Youth were not allowed to help with the garden project due to Covid 19 and program restrictions. The hope is, that in the future they will be able to help in the garden, possibly use the yields in their 4-H projects, and contribute to the farmers market. (Courtesy Photo)
