The Fairground Garden Project was developed by the class of 1997 and is the oldest existing BCMG garden project. The class of 1997 built and maintained the east bed at the Education Building and the west side was cared for by the VFW. The class of 2001 took on the responsibility of the plot and made many improvements. The Master Gardeners took over the west bed in 2005; the plantings in that bed were mainly evergreen shrubs. Those were removed and there have been additions and
deletions since then.
Our aim is to provide color of some kind for all of the growing season. The Fairgrounds gets a
lot of attention because of all the events that are held there. We receive many comments about how beautifully it is cared for. Come join us if you want to be part of a beautiful project. We are
the Fairground Groupies: defined as those filled with enthusiasm, as one attached to a cause, object, or in pursuit and ardently absorbed in an interest! Be a Fairground Groupie!
