At this time, the Junior Master Gardeners will be harvesting the historic garden plantings at Steuben Memorial State Historic Site as part of their ongoing service project. All Junior Master Gardeners need to hand in their reports on their Growums gardens as part of their Junior Master Gardener Service Project so that awards can be prepared.

The awards ceremony will be part of Steuben's Birthday celebration.
