Employees at the Iowa Farm Service Agency planted strawberries, onions, lettuce, radishes, beets, potatoes, peas, string beans, tomatoes, carrots, peppers and flowers as part of the People’s Garden initiative.
Nearly 11 vegetables were planted at the Iowa Farm Service Agency last week as part of the People’s Garden initiative. The agency encouraged other FSA offices and communities to join the effort to help demonstrate sustainable conservation practices as well as educate and engage the public. To date, Iowa has 34 People’s Gardens statewide.
