The Taylor County Fair showed an increase in the 4-H Horticulture exhibits this year. Three project days were held during spring break and many of those projects returned to be judged at the fair. These projects consisted of terrariums, dish gardens, upcycle, container garden, herb garden, annual, and leaf collections. Last year there were 19 entries. This year there were 49 horticulture entries. After judging the entries were displayed along with the other 4-H fair entries in the 4-H building at the Taylor County Fair. Additional horticulture projects will be added to the project days next year.
