Tomato Tips

The tomato is one of the most popular garden vegetables! If you're looking forward to growing your own tomatoes for the first time this summer, keep these tips in mind:
Plant tomato transplants deeper than they were growing in the tray; the deeper, the better.
Pick a location that does not hold water and receives as much direct sunlight as possible.

Youth and Union County have been camping at the Clyde, Austin, 4H Camp and Greenville for many years. This summer will be no different. We will leave on Monday, June 5 and travel to Greenville on a school bus. We will spend four nights having the time of our lives. We will return on Friday, June 9th. After a week of exciting and constant activities, youth return home in need a nap!
