Demonstration Home Garden Field Day

CASTANA, Iowa -- A demonstration home garden field day is set for July 25 at the Western Research and Demonstration Farm near Castana beginning at 6:30 p.m.

"Field days give gardeners the chance to see the research projects in progress and talk with the researchers involved," said Cindy Haynes, Iowa State University Extension horticulturist. "The public is also presented with an opportunity to view the latest in modern agriculture by viewing the new and unusual flowers and vegetables."

Highlights of the garden include different varieties of popcorn, tomato, potato, salsa and onion plants. Different flowers also are featured.
