JUNIOR GARDENER AWARD The Junior Gardener Award is open to Juniors within a 25km radius of Vegreville and awarded

to a maximum of twenty-five children each year. This event is entered and judged as an

entity separate from the rest of the bench show. Sponsored by Marie Eliuk.

ALL FLOWERS AND VEGETABLES TO BE PLANTED FROM SEED AND CARED FOR BY THE JUNIOR

GARDENER! No bedding plants please ☺ Suggestions for Junior Gardeners:

1. At the time of planting, use row markers to identify item and variety. 2. Row markers should be waterproof. 3. Keep your seed packages to paste into your journals. Keeping a journal keeps you organized. Mark

down the varieties of vegetables and flowers that you used. Mark down dates of planting, fertilizing, and progress along the way. Photos inserted make an interesting pictorial journal. Include comments about your preferences so that you can make choices that you prefer for next year.

4. Don’t forget to use fertilizer (i.e. 20-20-20 diluted) or well-rotted manure. 5. Try to be the only one looking after your garden. Be prepared to discuss with the judges the way you

put your garden together. Think about planting tall plants at the back and shorter ones at the front to access moisture and sunshine.

6. If you aren’t home during judging, make sure your name is displayed close to your garden. 7. Remember to have fun with this. If something doesn’t come up when you’re expecting it to come,

chose something else and get it in but please, no bedding plants…seeds only! Please enter one of the following. The categories are as follows:

1. Theme Container or Garden (celebrate Canada, Fairy Garden etc) 2. Unusual Container - (wagon, wheelbarrow, tires, tubs, etc.)
