Support Mifflinburg Ag Student in His Fall Mum Sale Ag Student, Colby Gessner started his Supervised Agricultural Experience Project on June 15, 2018. Colby decided to grow hardy mums since it was something he has never grown before. While he was excited to take on a new challenge, the project has been time consuming, and it has also been rewarding. In addition to fertilizing his mums daily, Colby explained that he has been using a tap irrigation system to water his plants twice a day. He is excited to see the growth of his plants in just a short time. He reminds us that mums are perennials, and if you plant them in the ground, they will come back each year. Colby will be selling the mums he grew on all Saturdays through September from 8:00 A.M. until noon at the Lewisburg Greenhouse on Saint Anthony Street between 2nd and 3rd Streets. Also, he will be selling them here at the Mifflinburg Area School District. Potted mums will be sold for $6.00 each and are available in red, orange, yellow and maroon. If you are interested in supporting Colby’s project and purchasing some of his mums, please email his teacher, Mrs. Linsday Spurrier at [email protected]. Mrs. Spurrier will get you in contact with Colby to place your order. Pre-orders are due by Tuesday, September 18, 2018.
